Day 13 of The Beatles' UK tour with Roy Orbison took them to the Odeon Cinema in Southend-on-Sea, Essex.
Throughout the tour they performed a set consisting of seven songs: Some Other Guy, Do You Want To Know A Secret, Love Me Do, From Me To You, Please Please Me, I Saw Her Standing There and Twist And Shout.
The Beatles performed at the Odeon Cinema on one other occasion, 9 December 1963. The venue was demolished in 2004 and replaced with a university building.
If it's of any interest, we have some exclusive pictures of the Beatles backstage in Southend as part of our Stars in Southend 1963 site.

'Thank You Girl' was also performed this night.
Can anybody tell me the capacity of the Southend Odeon in 1955.
Thanks Gerry.
