CHATTER AWAY: Overnight Open Thread

Deadline Hollywood reports:

The Broadway future of the acclaimed David Byrne’s American Utopia is unclear, but the date with HBO is certain: Spike Lee’s film adaptation of the theatrical concert is set for Oct. 17, and HBO released a first-look teaser today.

Set to the beat of Byrne’s cover of Janelle Monáe’s fierce “Hell You Talmbout,” which the former Talking Heads frontman performed regularly – with Monáe’s blessing – as part of the American Utopia show, the new teaser offers a good look at the production’s unique and powerful staging.

The best show I’ve seen on Broadway in years.
