April 28, 1964 The Beatles perform A Midsummer Night’s Dream
“It’s bracing to see how mirthfully they act out the Pyramus and Thisbe scene. Paul is the boy; John plays the boy playing the girl, in a dress and a blond wig. (…) John and Paul rave about how pretty they both are—“ these lily lips, that cherry nose!”— and snuggle up for the death scene” — Rob Sheffield, Dreaming The Beatles
