Step into the studio with the new West End play hailed as ‘an extraordinary, electrifying odyssey’ (The Guardian).
Crackling with 'spliffs, tiffs and finely tuned performances’ (The Telegraph), Stereophonic, will now extend its run until 22 November at the Duke of York’s Theatre.
‘Already the stuff of legend’ (WhatsOnStage), this ‘superb, gorgeously textured drama’ (Financial Times) plugs you into the electric atmosphere as one up-and-coming rock band record the album that could propel them to superstardom. Amid a powder keg of drugs, booze and jealousy, songs come together, and relationships fall apart. The mics are on, the tapes are rolling, but will this band break through, break down, or break up…
Written by David Adjmi, directed by Daniel Aukin, and featuring original music by Will Butler, formerly of Arcade Fire, this ‘fine-grained audacious work’ (The Standard) grants you intimate fly-on-the-wall access to the discord and disharmony of the creative process.

Portraying an ambitious rock band struggling to record their new album are: Zachary Hart as Reg the bass player, Lucy Karczewski as Diana the charismatic lead singer, Jack Riddiford as Peter the guitarist and Nia Towle as Holly, the keys player. They are joined by Andrew R. Butler and Eli Gelb as sound engineers Charlie and Grover, and Chris Stack as Simon the drummer, all of whom are reprising their roles from the acclaimed Broadway production.
Stereophonic originally had its World Premiere at Playwrights Horizons before transferring to Broadway on 3 April 2024. The hit play will also embark on a US tour from October 2025.
