WELCOME FROM THE MAYOR It is my great pleasure to welcome you back to DPAC! It’s been a while. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. That is certainly true in the case of DPAC. In March 2020, just as we were preparing for the return of HAMILTON and other fabulous Broadway shows and concerts by our favorite performers, Durham and the nation faced an unprecedented change. We waited patiently. We took care of ourselves and each other. We worked remotely. We followed the “three W’s”— washing, waiting and wearing masks. We got our vaccinations. We gave thanks to all of our frontline employees and healthcare workers whose extra efforts continue to make the difference. I’m thrilled to say that it’s now time to reignite the energy, the passion and great entertainment we’ve come to expect from our beloved DPAC. And guess what? The award-winning HAMILTON is set to return for three dynamic weeks in May. If you have seen it before, now is your time to see it again. If you’ve never seen it, trust me and hundreds of thousands of others who have seen the show. You are in for a treat. There are other shows and artists I’m sure you won’t want to miss, such as Rain – A Tribute to the Beatles, Ain’t Too Proud: The Life and Times of The Temptations, Hadestown, Charlie Wilson, and so many more. And as usual, all the trappings that come with seeing a show or concert at DPAC still await you, starting with the beauty of the theater and DPAC’s legendary customer service. A visit to DPAC is an open invitation to experience Durham. It’s as easy as parking and walking to downtown restaurants, or taking a short drive to nearby malls, museums or historical sites. My wife and I have been Truist Broadway members at DPAC since it opened in 2008. While this is my last DPAC welcome letter as Durham’s mayor, rest assured that we will still be the biggest fans of this amazing performing arts center we love so much. Thank you being a part of our history, present and future just by choosing DPAC and Durham. Now settle into your seats to enjoy your DPAC experience and an unforgettable show. Sincerely,
Mayor Steve Schewel

WELCOME FROM GENERAL MANAGER Welcome to DPAC! Or maybe better said … welcome back to DPAC! On behalf of my team at DPAC and our parent companies, Nederlander and Professional Facilities Management, we feel incredibly fortunate to once again be welcoming guests to DPAC, not only for great Broadway shows, but for all of the 200 performances planned for this season including world-class concerts, superstar comedians, and the many special events including speakers, holiday performances and family shows. The future looks very bright as all of Broadway’s biggest hit shows have DPAC in their plans, not just for this 2021 / 2022 season, but also for next season and beyond. As we planned and prepared for our reopening, your safety and peace of mind remained our highest priority. Our comprehensive Safety First Commitment is designed to protect guests, staff, vendors, and visiting shows, while maintaining the legendary customer experience for which DPAC is best known. We also want to recognize and thank the City of Durham for their commitment to safety with an investment of over $250,000, which enabled DPAC to add state-of-theart air purification systems, new touchless cleaning and disinfection equipment, touchless restroom fixtures, contactless ticket scanning equipment, contactless food & beverage payment processing, over 150 hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipe dispensers, and more. More than anything we want you to know how important you have been to DPAC as we have been planning and preparing to reopen for live events. Throughout our temporary closure, just 5% of our members contacted us to return their season tickets. Knowing that so many of our members and fans of DPAC events were cheering us on, gave the team here the extra fortitude needed to keep working toward the goal of being among the best prepared centers for live entertainment in America. And now the day is at hand for when we can once again say; “Welcome to DPAC, we’re glad you are here.” Sincerely,
Bob Klaus General Manager

STEVE LANDES PAUL CURATOLO AARON CHIAZZA ALASTAR MCNEIL MARK BEYER Created By:
STEVE LANDES JOEY CURATOLO JOE BITHORN RALPH CASTELLI MARK LEWIS THERE IS ONE 20-MINUTE INTERMISSION THE USE OF ANY RECORDING DEVICES, AUDIO OR VIDEO, AND THE TAKING OF PICTURES, WITH OR WITHOUT FLASH, WITHOUT THE WRITTEN PERMISSION OF RAIN MANAGEMENT, IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED.
WHO’S WHO IN THE CAST STEVE LANDES (Vocals, Rhythm Guitar, Harmonica, Piano, Original Broadway Cast) a life-long, second generation Beatles fan, Steve taught himself guitar at ten by listening to Beatles records and by 13 was fronting a top 40 cover band in his native Philadelphia. At 17 he joined Beatlemania and further developed his musicianship, touring the world with the show. After “passing the audition” with the existing Rain band members in 1998, his career was set. On one of his travels to England, he found himself at Liverpool’s Casbah Club, owned by pre-Ringo Beatles drummer Pete Best. Encouraged to get on stage, Steve belted out lead vocals to the Beatles rocker “Slow Down,” while Best sat in on drums. As a backup musician, Steve has performed alongside legendary sixties artists Peter Noone (Herman’s Hermits), Joey Molland (Badfinger), Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels and Tiny Tim. As an actor, he appeared in the films Wedding Bell Blues, For Which He Stands and Tim Burton’s Mars Attacks! Steve writes and records his own original music. www.steve-landes.com, facebook. com/steve.landes.rain. PAUL CURATOLO (Vocals, Bass, Piano, Guitar) The Beatles became Paul’s biggest influence as a child growing up with RAIN. At ten years old, his musical journey began when he taught himself the drums. He quickly adapted to guitar & piano which drove him to write and record his own music. When he was 14, as a member of the pop band “Wayward”, he went on to record five albums. Until recently the band has toured the U.S. and was voted home town heroes in A.P. magazine (Alternative Press). Paul’s love for the Beatles has driven him to master the character of Paul McCartney down to every detail. From vocal inflections to turning the bass over to perform left-handed. Paul considers it an honor to pay tribute to his idol. AARON CHIAZZA (Drums, Percussion, Vocals) began playing music at the young age of 5 when his parents gifted him a drum set. This drum set did not last long under the strength of a kindergartner and eventually
28-B
he moved into a full size instrument by early elementary school. Early yet important musical influences stemmed from a blend of past era funk, soul, jazz, rock, and others. From there he went on to study music in an academic setting through high school and college participating in Jazz, Symphonic, and percussion ensembles. Amongst tossing up time between original projects, writing and shows, Aaron also loves being an audio engineer and artist. You can follow his work and ventures with RAIN on his website - www.AaronChiazza.com ALASTAR McNEIL (Vocals, Lead Guitar, Guitar Synth) Born and raised on the island of Oʻahu, State of Hawaiʻi, Alastar McNeil grew up surrounded by musicians who played ukulele and guitar. These instruments would play a pivotal role in his life as he became an ukulele luthier - for a time supervising a local factory - and eventually changed careers to fulfill the dream of being a full time musician. Alastar and his wife Miwa (herself a kihoʻalu or Hawaiian slack key guitarist) have played with the iconic band Kupaʻāina for years even as he earned a solid reputation for his instrumentation and adaptability playing with Honolulu bands doing everything from Irish to reggae, funk to classic rock and even a local Beatles tribute. “Playing with RAIN has challenged and improved my ability to express myself not just as a musician but as an actor and entertainer as well. Nothing is more thrilling!” MARK BEYER (Keyboard, Percussion) began piano lessons at age 8, and at 12 was given special acceptance into a local University music school where he was privately trained in piano and music theory. At 14, he began experimenting with electronic keyboards and synthesizers from the 1970s, and played professionally in a progressive rock band. As keyboard technology advanced, Mark became known for his uncanny reproductions of elaborate sound textures, exotic instruments, and simulations of full orchestras. Mark is the primary programmer and sound designer for the keyboards currently used in RAIN’s production. www.Beatlekeys.com
WHO’S WHO IN THE CAST Performers may change. Additional musicians may include: CHRIS SMALLWOOD (Keyboard, Percussion) Chris fell in love with music as a young kid, but didn’t fall onto a piano bench until high school, when he broke his leg. Just two years later, he was invited to Kentucky’s prestigious Governor’s School for the Arts program. In 2008, Chris received a bachelor of music from Belmont University, and in 2010 earned his master of music from the University of Louisville. Chris has toured internationally with Rain: A Tribute to the Beatles for over eight years, and loves sharing his passion for The Beatles’ music with fans all over the world. Chris currently serves as adjunct music faculty at Belmont University, and owns Mockingbird Musicians - a Nashville contracting service for live music and entertainment. Chris was appointed Music Director/Performer for the “Eat Your Science” tour, Chef Alton Brown’s live show. Chris released his first piano pop record, “Out in the Open,” which is available on iTunes. Creators: JOEY CURATOLO (Vocals, Bass, Piano, Guitar, Original Broadway Cast) grew up in a Brooklyn household where classical music and opera formed the soundtrack. A natural musician, he was infatuated with The Beatles, taught himself guitar at age 10 and played piano by ear at 16. After winning multiple McCartney sound-alike contests, Joey toured with the Broadway production of Beatlemania. He joined Rain shortly after, and helped transform the band into the multimedia production it is today. In addition, he is an active singer/songwriter and studio musician. His original Christmas song “Wishing You a Very Merry Christmas” is featured on Broadway’s Carols for a Cure, Volume 12 (to benefit BC/EFA) as well as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation’s Hope for the Holidays charity album. When Universal Pictures needed a McCartney sound, they contacted Joey to record the song “Love Take Me Down” for the recently released comedy Role Models. For Joey, performing on Broadway was a dream come true.
JOE BITHORN (Vocals, Lead Guitar, Guitar Synth, Sitar, Original Broadway Cast) grew up in Manhattan and Long Island, where he was exposed to a variety of music including jazz, Latin, classical and more. By age three, his musical father taught his children how to sing harmony. He was profoundly influenced by the experiences he had at Carnegie Hall through his Mom, who worked with the Festival Casals. Thanks to The Beatles’ appearance on Ed Sullivan, Joe took a strong interest in the guitar. Early influences include the band Cream, and Joe developed the ability to learn guitar parts by ear by age 14. By age 16, he was so proficient that he was recruited for studio sessions. While in high school, Joe and his brother formed the Bithorn Brothers Band, performing the early music of the Allman Brothers Band. Joe heard about an audition for Beatlemania and was hired for the touring production as George. After touring with the show in North America, Joe joined Rain in 1983 and has been touring the world ever since. RALPH CASTELLI (Drums, Percussion, Vocals, Original Broadway Cast) was born and raised in southern California, surrounded by a musically talented family, and by age six became passionate about playing drums. On that momentous night in February, 1964, when The Beatles first appeared on “The Ed Sullivan Show,” Ralph was hypnotized and knew playing drums was what he was born to do. Captivated by Ringo Starr and The Beatles that night, Ralph’s excitement continued to grow, and his dream would eventually become his reality. After touring and performing with numerous bands and pursuing his acting career, Ralph landed the role of Ringo Starr in the touring production of Beatlemania and was also cast as Ringo in Beatlemania: The Movie. His talent, drum techniques, humor, style and appearance were in his favor. Ralph joined Rain in 1986 and was thrilled to be on Broadway. MARK LEWIS (Founder, Manager, Original Keyboardist). As the managerial and creative mind that transformed Rain from a 1970’s southern California bar band doing Beatles

WHO’S WHO IN THE CAST covers into an ultra-professional group, Mark Lewis recruited the excellent musicians who would gel into Rain’s long-standing line-up. He traces his love of the Fab Four to the Sunday night of February 9, 1964, when his generation was smitten by The Beatles on “The Ed Sullivan Show.” Originally called Reign, the band gained national fame, changed its name to Rain and cut the soundtrack to the made-for-TV movie Birth of The Beatles (thanks to Dick Clark). An accomplished pianist at 13, having studied since age five, he began his career playing the Farfisa organ in teenage rock bands around his native Los Angeles. It was Mark, the original keyboard player with Rain, who worked out all of the musical parts and sounds that enabled Rain to bring to life many songs that The Beatles themselves never performed live.

MOBILE ENTRY AT DPAC Your Phone is Now Your Ticket PHOTO: MICHAEL GILLMAN
Mobile entry is a safe, easy, convenient, and contactless way to access and manage your tickets all in one place. Safety is every venue’s #1 priority and mobile entry gives DPAC a better understanding of who guests are prior to every performance through this new adaptation. Now, more than ever, it is critical for venues to know who is in possession of each ticket in order to be able to share important information with them regarding health and safety measures before the doors open and the show begins. With mobile entry, which is powered by DPAC’s official ticketing partner Ticketmaster, there’s no need for direct contact or physical exchange of your ticket. Mobile entry guarantees a quick and safe ticket scan straight from your phone. Our secure ticket technology reduces the risk of ticket fraud, eliminating the possibilities of theft or counterfeiting. Once you’ve purchased your mobile tickets on Ticketmaster, you can always rest assured you’re getting the seats you paid for. Always be aware, though. Do not purchase tickets from unauthorized online ticket brokers. Don’t be fooled by online websites who mimic DPAC’s name or website and offer tickets they might not even have. Go directly to DPACnc.com or to Ticketmaster.com.

GUEST ETIQUETTE At DPAC, we’re committed to Guest Courtesy. Please remember to be a good neighbor to those seated around you. AFTER THE PERFORMANCE
Yes, the lobby gets busy and the parking lots can be tricky, but please remain at your seats until the houselights come up. As a courtesy to the performers and other audience members, DPAC asks that you do not rush for the exits prematurely at the end of the performance.
ENTERING AND EXITING THE SEATING AREA
Please time your exits and re-entry to the seating area to occur only at intermission or breaks between songs. This is a courtesy to other guests around you who will appreciate you keeping these disruptions to a minimum.
KIDS AT DPAC
Please note that all guests require a ticket, regardless of age. Children under the age of 6 are not allowed at most DPAC performances including Broadway, Concerts and Comedy shows. For some shows, DPAC will make recommendations on the appropriate minimum age based on the content and the length of the event. Parental discretion is always advised and judgment of the appropriateness of the content for each show should be made on an individual basis prior to purchase. Children must be able to sit quietly in their own seat without disturbing other guests. As a further courtesy to our guests, DPAC recommends one parent or chaperone for every one child in attendance.
IT CAN WAIT.
Please save texting until AFTER the show. The light from phones is distracting to others throughout the theater. Please keep them turned off.
IT’S SUPERSTAR ENTERTAINMENT, NOT A FOOD FEST
Small snacks and drinks are welcome in the seating area, but as a courtesy to those around you, eat and drink as quietly as possible. Please know that odors and noisy wrappers can disturb others. We also ask that you finish sandwiches or other large food items before entering the seating area.
PHOTOGRAPHY / VIDEO RECORDING USING MOBILE PHONES
At DPAC, each event that we host determines their own policy on photography and video recording using mobile phones. Please note that GoPro’s, tablets, and cameras of any kind are prohibited at all DPAC events. All Broadway shows prohibit photography and video recording.
QUIET PLEASE.
Once the show starts, please let the stage be the center of attention. We ask that you turn off all cell phones and limit conversation. If children are attending this performance with you, please exit the theater immediately if they become restless or talkative.
