What is the play Stereophonic about?

California, 1976: an unnamed, up-and-coming Anglo-American rock band sit down to record their latest album over the course of a year. On the cusp of superstardom, the pressure is on, but with the band consisting of two couples - bassist Reg and keyboardist Holly, who are married, and long-term partners guitarist Peter and vocalist Diana - they struggle to maintain the balance between the professional and the personal. As cracks begin to appear in their relationships, tensions mount, and drummer Steve - along with studio assistants Grover and Charlie - tries to keep the peace and stay on track. Fueled by cocaine binges, late-night sessions, and an obscene number of takes, the band become ever more fractured as they fight to achieve perfection, and the studio becomes a powder keg, ready to explode. Will the band break down, or break through?

Written over ten years by award-winning playwright David Adjmi, and with “smart, well-crafted tunes” (Vulture) from Arcade Fire’s Will Butler Stereophonic looks at love, art, the myth of “male genius”, industry greed, and what happens when you get what you think you want. Stereophonic’s Broadway run broke records, as it became the most-nominated play of all time at the 2024 Tony Awards, receiving thirteen nominations and winning five, including Best Play. Stereophonic “already feels like a must-see American classic” (New York Times) - so get ready to be dazzled, London, and book now as this show is sure to be a sell-out.

Best show in town. So many tiny little details that can be seen afresh on every viewing. The writing of this show slowly reveals human behaviours - the faults and the frailties. The singing is divine (although not a musical).

Long, but very grateful they made no cuts for convenience. The language is rich and naturalistic. Great writing, great performances, clever set and some sublime voices. It doesn't get better than this.

Not for those wanting story or plot. This is just a fly on the wall look at human behaviour. Perfect.
