STEREOPHONICS
Details
a new play on Broadway with music by Arcade Fire's Will Butler, tracks the volatile creation of a rock and roll album over the course of a year in the 1970s.
The fictional five-member band, on the surface, looks a lot like Fleetwood Mac – it has two couples, one American, one British, and they squabble and break up as they make the record.
But, for the show's creative team, it is a hyper realistic look at the costs and glories of making art.
"There are iconographic elements that I stole from Fleetwood Mac," said playwright David Adjmi, "but I also stole from other things."
