The play 'Stereophonic' broke records by receiving 13 Tony nominations, the most in history for a non-musical production.
The play 'Stereophonic' made history when it received 13 Tony nominations – the most in history for a non-musical production.The story, written by David Adjmi and scored by Will Butler, centers on a band struggling to create an epic album while dealing with rivalries and resentments that boil up when they are trapped in a studio for a year from 1976 to 1977.
Canfield believes that the group was all cast because Butler and Adjmi thought they could act the parts and then 'sort of crossed their fingers' that they would be able to work musically together.The actors rehearsed for hours daily. Some took lessons. Tom Pecinka, who plays the lead guitarist, said he had only ever played 'garbage guitar.''My hands shake all the time. I mean, they don't shake anymore, but off-Broadway, they shook a lot,' said Pecinka.
