No Sir Paul
There are no plans for Paul McCartney to attend the final performance of “Love” at the Mirage on July 6, says Cirque du Soliel PR exec Ann Paladie. This topic came up during an interview with Giles Martin this week, for an upcoming column. Martin, the (re)mastermind of the show’s music, will be on hand for the sendoff.
Ringo Starr is celebrating his 85th birthday in L.A. on July 7, and is not planning to be at the send-off. No word on any of John Lennon’s family (Yoko Ono, Sean Ono Lennon and Julian Lennon all attended the opening in June 2006 and also the fifth anniversary in 2011). Olivia Harrison, widow of George Harrison, has seen the show multiple times, including last Thursday and Friday, and will be there.
