THEME
Tammie Strause became a fan of the Beatles in high school and she grew to appreciate them even more when she was in her 30’s. She loves their catchy tunes, simple harmonies and the emotions their music evokes. To her, there’s nothing like listening to “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” when she needs to be inspired or motivated.

Regardless of age, gender, social status or race, the music of the Beatles has entertained and inspired so many of us. As such, it seems logical for her to choose them for this year’s summer show. Inspired by The Beatles will run July 8 through August 13.
