The Beatles in Blokker on Tour

How did The Beatles end up in the West Frisian town of Blokker in 1964 for the only performances they ever gave in the Netherlands? This question is at the heart of the musical show 'The Beatles in Blokker on Tour'.

The evening opens with the North Holland band Bolistic Smoke, who perform the exact setlist of 8 songs that The Beatles played in Blokker in 1964. Afterwards, the NH documentary 'The Beatles and the Miracle of Blokker' is screened on the big screen and discussed with Beatles-in-Blokker expert Gert Elzinga. The documentary was made by NH journalists Tom Jurriaans and Michiel Baas together with Elzinga, and was previously broadcast on Omroep MAX.

After the interval, Bolistic Smoke performs a second set with Beatles classics such as 'Hello, Goodbye', 'Penny Lane', 'Let It Be' and 'Hey Jude'. The evening is presented by NH journalist Michiel Baas.
