  • Tension, Humor, and Heartbreak of artists under pressure.

OBSERVE THE ARTISTIC PROCESS

  • STEREOPHONIC paces in real time, with conversations that overlap, spark, and erupt. It mirrors how great albums are made: Quietly, Painstakingly, then all at once.

Stereophonic: The Plot

Zoom in on a music studio in 1976. Here, an up-and-coming rock band recording a new album finds itself suddenly on the cusp of superstardom. The ensuing pressures could spark their breakup — or their breakthrough. Written by David Adjmi, directed by Daniel Aukin, and featuring original music by Arcade Fire’s Will Butler, Stereophonic mines the agony and the ecstasy of creation as it invites the audience to immerse themselves — with fly-on-the-wall intimacy — in the powder keg process of a band on the brink of blowing up.
