Masterful, Intense, Great singing, Absorbing, Ambitious

See it if You love good music, David Byrne, the Talking Heads, and/or are looking to be captivated. This show is enthralling.

Don't see it if You’re looking for visual story and plot. This show is first about the music, with the staging and story largely subliminal.

Profound, Masterful, Exquisite

See it if you like live music, intelligent commentary, extremely talented musicians, moving experiences, passion.

Don't see it if hard to come up with something. I liked David Byrne, wasn't a die-hard fan. But this is so much more than that. Wonderful!

Phenomenal, Great staging and lighting, Must see, Masterful, Intelligent

See it if you enjoy an evening full of talent, creativity, great singing, choreography; good to see DB seeming so happy and comfortable with himself.

Don't see it if you're expecting a Broadway play or don't like DB - no other reason; so well produced, involving, you can feel the love from the stage. Read more

Must see, Great staging, Great singing, Entertaining, Delightful

See it if you want to have fun! Beautifully lit, staged, directed, & performed. I loved the movement. Song choices were great. Everyone should see it!

Don't see it if you don't care to see what is mostly a concert. But it is so joyful and so beautifully performed, you should give it a chance.

Resonant, Refreshing, Quirky, Clever, Ambitious

See it if a near-spiritual show that moves in mysterious ways yet utterly enthrals appeals. David Byrne holds the audience in the palm of his hand.

Don't see it if you need narrative or a firmer footing. This is a show that does its own thing and that won't be for everyone. Read more
