The show returns September 17 at the St. James Theatre.

A digital lottery will be available for David Byrne's American Utopia beginning with its September 18 performances. The theatrical concert, which originally ran on Broadway for a limited engagement in 2019, will play another limited run at the St. James Theatre from September 17 to March 6, 2022.

The digital lottery offers entrants a chance to win one or two $44 tickets to a performance of American Utopia. The lottery will open at 10 a.m. each Monday for the following week's performances. For weekday performances, entries close at 9:59 a.m. the day before each performance, and for weekend performances, entries close at 9:59 a.m. Friday. Winners will be notified by email once the lottery closes, and they must purchase tickets online with a credit card by 3 p.m. the day they are notified. Winners will receive their tickets by email the day of their performance.

Talking Heads frontman David Byrne achieved great success with his 2018 solo album, American Utopia, and now brings that album to the stage in a theatrical concert. Backed by 11 band members, Byrne performs the Grammy-nominated album plus hits from throughout his career.
