David Adjmi's Stereophonic, a play with music by Grammy winner Will Butler of Arcade Fire, has extended its Broadway run at the Golden Theatre by six weeks. Originally scheduled to run for only 14 weeks, the production will now play its final performance on August 18.
The play, which had its official Broadway opening on April 19, traces a rock group's tumultuous recording sessions in 1976 and 1977. The cast features Will Brill as Reg, Andrew R. Butler as Charlie, Juliana Canfield as Holly, Eli Gelb as Grover, Tom Pecinka as Peter, Sarah Pidgeon as Diana and Chris Stack as Simon. Daniel Aukin directs the production, which premiered off-Broadway at Playwrights Horizons last year.
As previously reported, the Stereophonic cast album will be released digitally on May 10 with the physical CD release set for June 14.
