By KYLIE WILSON FROM his youth in Mansfield to writing well received plays and novels in Melbourne, Gabriel Bergmoser has always been enthused about the creative process. This has come to the fore once again in one of his latest works, a play centred around The Beatles called We Can Work It Out, which will be performed this month at regional venues in the North East. Gabriel said he has long been fascinated by The Beatles, from their phenomenal success as a group to their various solo careers. “And then there are all the interpersonal conflicts and tensions between the four. “What was it like behind closed doors, especially during the more fraught times?” Gabriel said. “We Can Work It Out kind of stemmed from wanting to explore that.” He said he had read some books on the band and was also assisted in refining the script by actor and Beatles fanatic Brett Wolfenden, who plays Ringo in the show.
