McCartney Times

The Uptown Music Collective (UMC) returns to the Community Theatre League in downtown Williamsport to present All Things Must Pass: The Solo Works of The Beatles on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. This performance will feature the music from the solo careers of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr after the dissolution of The Beatles in 1970.

This concert will celebrate the songwriting of these legendary musicians on the Community Theatre League’s stage with the creativity and musicality the students of the Uptown Music Collective have become known for.

“It has been about two years since the Collective has been able to hold a concert at the Community Theatre League due to COVID,” said Jared Mondell, assistant executive director of the Uptown Music Collective. “We are very excited to get back into the Community Theatre League to perform. The intimacy of this performance lends itself to the Community Theatre League’s stage.”

All Things Must Pass will feature Collective students who have been diligently preparing for this event for more than two months. Along with the music, there will be a professional-grade light and sound show organized by the students, themselves. As with all Uptown Music Collective performances, the students are not only the performers but also direct the show. A group of younger students, or “Tech Monkeys,” will serve as stage technicians and spotlight operators. The cast for the show is drawn from the Uptown Music Collective’s much-heralded Special Performance Group 1.
