‘Stereophonic’ Playwright David Adjmi Sets The Record Straight On Rumours, Rock Stars And What’s In Store For Broadway’s Most Tony-Nominated Play Ever


Deadline Q&A With 'Stereophonic' Broadway Playwright David Adjmi

More decades ago than many of us care to admit, a rock and roll album as gorgeous in sound as it was cantankerous in spirit arrived in record stores and on radio charts that could hardly have been less prepared for it. Forty-seven years later, David Adjmi ‘s Stereophonic is doing for theater what Stevie and Lindsey and all the rest did for FM radio way back when, injecting a vivid life into an overcrowded, near-moribund landscape with a verve that strikes nary a false note. Rather, Adjmi, whose previous plays include the raucous comedy 3C about a Three’s Company-like farce, has pieced together the bone structure of Fleetwood Mac with characters that correspond to the real-life bandmates and a series of tempestuous recording sessions that chart the all-too-famililar musical highs and lows and romantic ups and downs.
