Praise for Stereophonic
The most Tony Award-nominated Play of all time. The most Tony Award-winning Show of 2024. Written by David Adjmi, directed by Daniel Aukin, and featuring original music by Arcade Fire’s Will Butler, Stereophonic invites the audience to immerse themselves — with fly-on-the-wall intimacy — in the powder keg process of an up-and-coming rock band on the brink of superstardom in 1976.
A Great Love Productions were lead producers of Stereophonic on Broadway, the West End in London, as well as the U.S. Tour.
