A Broadway musical, which was inspired by the Beatles music, is reportedly closing down 4 months in advance of its schedule due to poor sale of tickets.

The musical, titled 'Let it be', opened at NYC's St. James Theater in July and was scheduled to run until December 29, but it would now be closing on September 1, Contactmusic reported.

The show features 40 songs, including 'Hey Jude' and 'Help'.

However, the production has played to only 50,000 theatre fans, and has grossed between 2 million dollars and 2.4 million dollars.
