David Byrne's American Utopia.
22nd September 7.30 pm - Please note this is Saturday
Spike Lee documents the former Talking Heads frontman’s brilliant, timely Broadway show, based on his album and tour of the same name.
In American Utopia, David Byrne reflects on human connections, life and how on earth we work through it. He joins the dots with his music and it all starts making sense.
Spike Lee transforms the production into immersive, dynamic cinema that radiates with astounding performances, inventive contemporary dance and political urgency. Work by James Baldwin, Janelle Monáe and Kurt Schwitters is highlighted among exhilarating renditions of Byrne’s solo work, as well as Talking Heads classics.
Calling on all of us to think, connect, engage, and dance, David Byrne’s American Utopia unites the brain and the backside, and illuminates our responsibility to care for one another – which may be exactly what we need right now.
