The Apple Store in SoHo (103 Prince Street) will host a special afternoon with composer/creator David Byrne along with the cast of the hit off-Broadway musical Here Lies Love on Saturday afternoon, October 25th from 2 to 3 p.m. Moderated by New York Post theater writer and PBS' "Theater Talk" host Michael Riedel, there will be a discussion on the creation of the musical sensation about the life and times of Former Filipino First Lady Imelda Marcos with Byrne as well as the three stars of the show, Jaygee Macapugay (Imelda Marcos), Jose Llana (Ferdinand Marcos) and Conrad Ricamora (Ninoy Aquino). The program will conclude with a short concert style performance with the company.

Here Lies Love is currently playing at The Public Theater (425 Lafayette Street, New York City) through January 4th, 2015.

Within a pulsating dance club atmosphere, David Byrne and Fatboy Slim deconstruct the astonishing journey of Filipina First Lady Imelda Marcos retracing her rise to power and subsequent descent into infamy and disgrace at the end of the People Power Revolution. Here Lies Love is an immersive theatrical event combining songs influenced by four decades of dance music, adrenaline-fueled choreography, and a remarkable 360-degree scenic and video environment to celebrate Imelda's meteoric rise to political prominence and subsequent tragic consequences of her well-documented abuse of power.

Under the direction of Alex Timbers, Here Lies Love was conceived by David Byrne, and features lyrics by Byrne, music by Byrne and Fatboy Slim, additional music by Tom Gandey and J Pardo, and choreography by Annie-B Parson. Scenic design is by David Korins, costume design by Clint Ramos, lighting design by Justin Townsend, sound design by M.L. Dogg & Cody Spencer and projection design by Peter Nigrini. Kimberly Grigsby served as Music Supervisor.

Tickets for Here Lies Love range from $99-$129. For more info including performance times visit www.herelieslove.com.
