"Becoming Lennon" is the latest stage production showcasing the incredible music of John Lennon and performed by Platinum Award winning Eng/Prod and Emmy award winning songwriter (the eerily Lennon-like) Otto D'Agnolo (aka Otto D). Unlike typical tribute shows, Otto D never pretends to be John Lennon from the stage (although he does wear costumes and wigs at points in the show). Instead, he shares from the stage the many ways John's music has influenced his own life and his own award winning music career. Otto D even plays a few of his own songs so audiences can gauge for themselves the distance between the two artists. While admitting that the costume part of the show can make him feel a little creepy at times, he understands how the impact of the image is felt by audiences longing to re-connect with this unforgettable icon.

In "Becoming Lennon", Otto D slowly takes on his Lennon persona right before the audience’s eyes with multiple costume changes performed on stage during the show. Audience members have said “it's as if he channels the very spirit of John Lennon”. The show includes 20+ Lennon tunes and a few of Otto’s own.
Listen to what fans, journalists and friends have to say!
"Unbelievable! It's like John Lennon comes back to life! This show should be working everyday of the year!" - Joni Sledge (of Sister Sledge)
"Not only was this show the best tribute show I've ever seen, but the best concert of ANY kind I've seen in decades.
" - D.J. Fone (on-air personality)
"This is the BEST show you will see all year!" - Amy Clark (friend/ fan)
"...90 minutes of dare I say it – Lennon-wasn’t-actually-this-good entertainment!.." - Irving Jack (artist/ producer)
"You’re simply the best Lennon I’ve ever seen. And I’ve seen A LOT!" - Chance Tinder (premiere Elvis impersonator)
“As a life-long admirer of John Lennon and active participant in Beatlemania, I was shocked and astounded when I saw Otto as John Lennon. I’ve seen Beatles tribute bands but no one has come close to this portrayal of John. The likeness in physical presence and vocal sound is uncanny. Any and all Lennon fans should see this show for a magical mystery trip in time.” - Hit Songwriter/ Guitarist / Producer, Dick Wagner (Alice Cooper, Kiss, Aerosmith)
