David Byrne’s American Utopia was one of the best live shows I’ve seen in recent memory in 2018 in Dublin.
The show then went on to take up a residence on Broadway and on October 17th, a live adaptation of the show, directed by Spike Lee will premiere on HBO and HBO Max in the U.S. on October 17th.
Watch the trailer for it here.
