ABOUT THE PRODUCTION

STOP MAKING SENSE.
START DANCING.

A visually arresting, rhythm-driven celebration of Talking Heads.

Created under the musical direction of Steven Kikoen of Deacon Productions, BiG SUiT emerged from Chicago's music scene as a theatrical tribute to Talking Heads. Nearly a decade of performances have taken the production to theaters across the country.

Frontman Jason Krause captures the presence and distinctive performance style of David Byrne, supported by eight other musicians and performers. The band's official site calls the show a high-energy celebration of the infectious, unconventional music of Talking Heads.

BiG SUiT was nominated for Tribute Band of the Year at the 2024 Josie Music Awards.
