David Byrne has met a union agreement to open his ‚Here Lies Love‘ play.
David Byrne and the Local 802 musicians’ union have reached an agreement to hire live performers for his upcoming musical, Here Lies Love. Co-written by Byrne and Fatboy Slim, the play centers around Imelda Marcos — a former first lady of the Philippines.
“After negotiation, we have reached an agreement that will bring live music to Here Lies Love with the inclusion of 12 musicians to the show. Broadway is a very special place with the best musicians and performances in the world, and we are glad this agreement honors that tradition,” Local 802 wrote in a statement.
