The story of The Beatles, and of John Lennon in particular, has been told countless times, and in a theatre setting, this usually consists of a feel-good round-up of classic Beatles tunes. Lennon Through A Glass Onion, however, is very different, and the show succeeds because of this alternative approach.
Inspired by one of John's solo hits, Lennon Through A Glass Onion tells the story of his career from the perspective of John himself. Well, from Daniel Taylor who plays John; but he is so authentic in his look, his mannerisms, his dialect and, of course, his singing that many onlookers have noted that when watching this show, for a brief moment you almost forget that you are watching playing the role of Lennon, which is as high a compliment as one could possibly provide.
