‘Do we get stupider as we grow up?’

In his wildly popular Broadway show 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.

In David Bryne’s American Utopia, legendary filmmaker Spike Lee transforms the production into immersive, dynamic cinema that radiates with astounding performances, inventive contemporary dance and political urgency.

American Utopia flows like an iridescent dream vision. 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.
