David Byrne, currently on Broadway at the Hudson Theatre with his American Utopia, will take audiences on an intimate journey in Denver when the immersive Theater of the Mind launches August 2020.

Co-created with Surgo co-founder Mala Gaonkar, the experience is led by a guide who takes 16 people on a sensory-fronted journey of self-reflection, discovery, and imagination—all grounded and inspired by neuro-science.

“I have long had an interest in creating something that incorporated the sensory experiments we often read about in a way that was entertaining and engaging, but still gave people an experience that was visceral and profound,” said the Talking Heads frontman.
