David Byrne’s American Utopia at the Hudson Theater

David Byrne’s American Utopia at the Hudson Theater, Jan. 15-Feb. 16 
Tickets: $109-599. Shows at 8PM W-F, 5PM and 9PM on Sat, 3PM on Sundays.

David Byrne's 2018 album called American Utopia has now spawned a hit Broadway show – not quite a musical, but certainly more than a concert, in which Byrne travels through his extensive catalog of solo songs and old Talking Heads favorites with a band that is also a moving, multi-headed and multi-bodied organism. And somehow, the show suggests a narrative that makes it clear that the title, American Utopia, is not ironic. Together with staging and choreography by Annie-B Parson, and with Alex Timbers serving as production consultant (his collaborators on Here Lies Love), David Byrne and ensemble deliver a funky rock spectacle. American Utopia is in an extended but still limited run at the Hudson Theater through February 16.
