Nominated for 13 2024 Tony Awards and winner of five, including Best Play! Written by David Adjmi, with songs by Will Butler of Arcade Fire, this heavily buzzed production takes you on a wild ride through the day-to-day of five rock musicians making an album in the early '70s. The story itself is one of infighting, frustration, romance, and rock'n'roll (all the things you'd expect from a disagreeing '70s band). David Adjmi notes he drew inspiration from iconic band Fleetwood Mac and came up with the idea while listening to Led Zeppelin and pondering "What would it have been like to be in the studio when this was being recorded?".

Since its debut in 1955, the show has won three Tony Awards and been adapted into four movies. A historical spectacle that must be seen to be believed!
