Stereophonic mines the agony and the ecstasy of creation as it zooms 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 and featuring original music by Arcade Fire's Will Butler, Stereophonic 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.
