I also realized that what creates the biggest impact on an audience is performers.David Byrne is a singer, songwriter, musician, film director and producer, author, lecturer, photographer and visual artist. I had this vision of how exciting that would be – both for me and for an audience. “I pictured a lot of drummers, a kind of drum line/samba school/second line- that would create the rhythms. “As I was recording the songs for my American Utopia album it occurred to me that they would be exciting to play live- and I realized that a lot of my older material would fit right in… I imagined a live show,” Byrne wrote in a letter about the Broadway production. The American Utopia performance will then run from October 4th through January 19, 2020, with the official opening set for October 20th.
David Byrne’s American Utopia, which features the singer and an ensemble performing both Byrne’s Talking Heads and solo works, will first stage an 18-date run at Boston’s Emerson Colonial Theatre in September before migrating to Broadway’s Hudson Theatre in October.
