Girls collect autographs from a bunch of half dressed Beatles “backstage” at Stowe School, in Stowe, Buckinghamshire, on 4th April 1963. Stowe School was a boys only public school that the Beatle performed at on the same date.

The Beatles play Roxburgh Hall at Stowe School, on 4th April 1963, one of their most unusual live shows. 

Stowe School in Stowe, Buckinghamshire was a public school (public school in the UK are the schools you pay tuition for). A pupil at the school, David Moores from Liverpool, wrote to Brian Epstein to ask The Beatles to perform. Brian was impressed and agreed to the booking. The Beatles played in the school's Roxburgh Hall to rows of well behaved, seated public school boys and not a single scream was heard.
