Broadway Review: David Byrne's 'AmericanUtopia' Is an artistically stunning, and surprisingly political, tour de force DBtodomundo
’s long and prolific career is his ability to grow a seemingly simple idea into something brilliant, whether it’s the melody of “Road to Nowhere” or the concept of the “Stop Making Sense” tour some 36 years ago, where the concept of bringing out nine musicians, one at a time per song, grew into one of the most iconic tours in modern music history. What is perhaps most remarkable is his ability to keep coming up new ideas that seem obvious, but obviously aren’t.
The musicians — totaling 12, including Byrne — come onstage gradually, wearing headset microphones and matching grey suits and grey shirts, and all are barefoot . The lighting is stark; there aren’t even any colored lights until midway through the show, and even then they’re single colors to suit the mood of a song.
Throughout, Byrne is the gracious ringleader, always the frontman and always in charge but happily ceding the spotlight to musicians or dancers for solos, and twice taking comical, wordless vocal solos himself .
