Take A Ride With Us

The Ed Sullivan Theater (53rd Street and Broadway) -- Here, on Sept. 9, 1956, the world went wild at the sight of Elvis Presley's swinging pelvis. On Feb. 9, 1963, The Beatles made their appearance at the vanguard of the British Invasion there. On Sept. 17, 1967, Jim Morrison defied broadcast propriety and sang "Light My Fire" his way instead of censoring the line "Girl We Couldn't Get Much Higher." A lot of important moments in pop music history happened on "The Ed Sullivan Show," and I'd be remiss to avoid the theater that housed it.

The film will be divided into two parts. The first part entitled "Revolution" will explain the innovative business approach of the group at the time and its unique way of communicating in the press. The second part, entitled "Evolution" tell - about it - how the group has developed its image using short video clips.
