Meet Our Fab Team Behind the Magic
Check out their wide range of entertainment backgrounds:
Cha-Chi Loprete
Producer and Co-Host
Being in the entertainment industry for over four decades, Cha-Chi is the ultimate Beatles Insider. He’s the go-to Media Personality for all-things Beatles and has collaborated with Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr throughout the years, along with other icons in their inner circle like George Martin, Yoko Ono, and Peter Asher.
Cha-Chi has had dinner with Paul McCartney at his NYC family apartment, was backstage at his private concert at the Frank Sinatra School of the Arts, and was even invited into Abbey Road Studios in London for an exclusive Paul McCartney/Tony Bennett recording session.
Hosting the popular 'Breakfast With The Beatles' New England radio show, Cha-Chi has helped bring Ringo Starr’s concerts to Boston, has emceed five sold-out Beatles performances with the Boston Pops at the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and hosts the hit podcast ‘Get Back to The Beatles’ where he has exclusive conversations with those who’ve worked personally with The Fab Four.
John Logan
Producer and Co-Host
While most magicians aim to fool their audiences, John doesn’t like that approach -- rather, John uses his passion in magic and blends it with education. He even created his own company called 'Impossible is Just a Word' that focuses on these types of experiences as well.
This framework, combined with his up-beat style and quick-wit humor, has led him down an exciting and unconventional path: receiving a standing ovation on NBC’s America’s Got Talent, being the Team Magician for the New England Patriots, and touring the country with Super Bowl Champion Malcolm Mitchell to promote literacy with high-energy programming.
Through meeting a wide range of audience members over the years, John noticed two common themes that unite people: Magic and The Beatles. Inspired by this, he decided to blend the two together in a nostalgic yet innovative way, making him the only person in the world that does this type of creative entertainment on stage. As a result, John’s magic in the Come Together show features underground stories about The Beatles, while at the same time mixing audience interaction, humor, and life lessons along the way.
Stephanie Loprete
Executive Producer and
Head of Public Relations
Stephanie is the jack-of-all-trades making sure all of the boxes are checked off for the shows, while also managing the business aspect of the production.
She's collaborated with high-profile artists such as Madonna, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Fleetwood Mac, Traveling Wilburys and every type of entertainment in between.
During her time at Warner Bros. Records in NYC, she made waves with MTV, VH1, and other media giants, spotlighting top artists from Warner, Maverick, and Reprise.
Before that, she was the Media and Promotions Manager at Strawberries Music and Video, leading promotions across the Northeast and managing an annual budget of $8 million.
Jonathan Vale
Associate Producer and
Creative Consultant
As an extraordinary magician himself, Jonathan Vale is John Logan’s right-hand man behind the scenes. Vale’s unique approach to psychology, storytelling, and mind-reading helps Logan develop the magic components of the show.
His invaluable perspective on entertainment helps elevate the experience to the next level with his keen eye for details, creative scriptwriting, and exceptional ability to bring a vision to life.
Although he’s backstage during the Come Together show helping with production logistics, he travels all across New England performing on stage with his own shows as well.
You can catch him at his regular appearances at the Rockwell Theatre in Somerville and The Lilypad in Cambridge, while also seeing him as a keynote speaker talking about mental health, where he recently presented at Boston College.
Bradley Jay
Master of Ceremonies
Bradley brings the energy as the Emcee for every Come Together event, kicking off the show by introducing Cha-Chi and John to the audience. A three-time Grammy Celebrity Host, former Boston radio DJ and talk host (WBCN, WBZ), and a Woodstock '99 host interviewing over 20 artists, Bradley has kept Boston entertained for almost 40 years.
Bradley has been nominated for Billboard's Major Market Personality of the Year and has produced creative programming, including a ten-episode series on Boston’s music scene for WBZ Radio. He’s even reported from the Vatican with Crux and now travels Europe for his Bradley Jay Travel Show.
