The new musical from David Byrne and Fatboy Slim, titled Here Lies Love, has shared that on Thursday, August 31, it will host a one-night-only post-show DJ set from Fatboy Slim at the Broadway Theatre in New York City. Every audience member who purchases tickets to that evening’s performance of Here Lies Love can remain for the post-show set–added tickets will also be available.
The musical’s co-producer, DJ CherishTheLuv, stated via press release: “This rare night on Broadway with Fatboy Slim is for the true party rockers and tastemakers. Whether I’m DJing for MTV or Fashion Week, it is the savviest folks in the crowd who tear up the floor when I drop Fatboy’s ‘Right Here, Right Now’ and then request ‘that Christopher Walken song.’ I’m excited to be transported back to some good times, REALLY good times, and make amazing new memories on a special night at Here Lies Love!”
Commenting on the forthcoming DJ set, Byrne referenced time spent with Norman Quentin Cook, otherwise known as Fat Boyslim, offering via press release: “Working with Norm on Here Lies Love was a joy. This night will be something I can’t even imagine. If you’ve never seen his videos, watch them, the best ever.”
Here Lies Love began previews on Saturday, June 17, and opened to rave reviews on Thursday, July 20. The production tells the story of former Filipina First Lady Imelda Marcos’ astonishing rise to power and subsequent fall at the hands of the Philippine People Power Revolution. The play was produced by Hal Luftig/Kevin Connor, Patrick Catullo, Clint Ramos, Jose Antonio Vargas, and Diana DiMenna and Plate Spinner Productions, with Aaron Lustbader serving as Executive Producer.
Tickets are on sale now at Telecharge.com, by phone at 212-239-6200, or at the Broadway Theatre box office (1681 Broadway at 53rd Street).
