THE MUSICAL BOX Re-creates
GENESIS Paradise:�The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway� 30th
Anniversary North American Tour
�The band has adopted
(at a cellular level) the British �progressive� art-rock band Genesis,
with its pioneering approach to theatrics, graphics, and presentation�� - Spectator
�Now this is what we
came here for, the whole enchilada, performed as it was intended.
Magic, sheer magic.� - The
Daily Examiner (UK)
Before Peter Gabriel�s
frenetic images and conceptual brilliance took an unsuspecting young
video age by storm, his last foray with Genesis, The Lamb Lies
Down On Broadway proved a high water mark of progressive music
on the live concert stage. After its 1974 release, the band embarked on
an extensive world tour, performing the ambitious double album at more
than 140 dates from start to finish.
Thirty years later,
THE MUSICAL BOX has completely captured this full-on experience of
masks, costumes, and special effects with unwavering attention to
detail. Note for note, thread for thread, THE MUSICAL BOX is
introducing several generations of rock fans to the multi-sensory
experience that of The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway just the
way it was, and the only way it should ever continue to be, on a very
special 30th Anniversary North American tour that
includes multi-night engagements in Milwaukee (PABST Theater), New York
City (Tribeca) and Philadelphia (the historic Keswick Theatre in nearby
Glenside, PA). read

bio
THE BEGINNING
In the autumn of 1973, a musical
event was about to re-define the concept of a rock show. Five
British musicians, under the name of Genesis, began touring
Europe and North America to promote the release of their fourth
album, Selling England by the Pound.
Both the theatrical imagination of Peter Gabriel and
the intricacy and intensity of Genesis' music reached their
apex, and were enhanced by surrealistic sets and special visual
effects, leaving the audience spellbound. For what proved to be one
of the first-ever multimedia performances, Selling England by the
Pound remains a vivid memory for those privileged to have
attended it.
The timelessness of the artistry was such that almost
30 years later, the show is still contemporary, and enjoys a
cult-like following.
It has become a Classic...
