'An audaciously original new play that's simultaneously epic and intimate' (Hollywood Reporter)
Take a trip back in time to the mid-1970s to a recording studio in California where the pressure is on for a nameless rock band inspired by Fleetwood Mac and their fraught recording of Rumours. Following the success of their first record, the band is on the cusp of stardom with their sophomore record, which they work on over the course of a year. However, tensions run high through internal conflicts and they need to reach a compromise about what to cut off their too-long record.
'A staggering achievement' (New York Times)
Written by David Adjmi, directed by Daniel Aukin, and featuring original music by Will Butler, formerly of Arcade Fire, Stereophonic grants you intimate fly-on-the-wall access to the discord and disharmony of the creative process.
See original US cast members Andrew R Butler (Rags Parkland Sings The Songs Of The Future), Eli Gelb (Skintight, Indignation), and Chris Stack (Your Mother's Copy of the Kama Sutra, Marie Antoinette) reprise their roles from the original production and make their London stage debut.
