To celebrate both the anniversary of his death on January 10th and his birthday on January 8th, two different streaming events will remind us of his genius.</p> <p>The first is <em><a href="https://dice.fm/artist/david-bowie-y8xr?_branch_match_id=650345424544950068" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lazarus</a></em>, the musical Bowie created that was inspired by the novel <em>The Man Who Fell to Earth</em> by Walter Trevis. The musical had its world premiere at the New York Theatre Workshop in late 2015. It immediately sold out and was running at the time of Bowie’s death. If the title sounds familiar, it is the same story that inspired Nicolas Roeg’s 1976 in which Bowie starred. </p> <p>Dice.fm is making a film of the British production available for only three showings this weekend.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://culturalattache.co/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Michael-C.-Hall-and-Sophia-Anne-Caruso-in-22Lazarus22-Photo-by-Johan-Persson-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-12494" srcset="https://culturalattache.co/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Michael-C.-Hall-and-Sophia-Anne-Caruso-in-22Lazarus22-Photo-by-Johan-Persson-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://culturalattache.co/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Michael-C.-Hall-and-Sophia-Anne-Caruso-in-22Lazarus22-Photo-by-Johan-Persson-300x169.jpg 300w, https://culturalattache.co/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Michael-C.-Hall-and-Sophia-Anne-Caruso-in-22Lazarus22-Photo-by-Johan-Persson-768x432.jpg 768w, https://culturalattache.co/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Michael-C.-Hall-and-Sophia-Anne-Caruso-in-22Lazarus22-Photo-by-Johan-Persson-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://culturalattache.co/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Michael-C.-Hall-and-Sophia-Anne-Caruso-in-22Lazarus22-Photo-by-Johan-Persson-696x392.jpg 696w, https://culturalattache.co/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Michael-C.-Hall-and-Sophia-Anne-Caruso-in-22Lazarus22-Photo-by-Johan-Persson-1068x601.jpg 1068w, https://culturalattache.co/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Michael-C.-Hall-and-Sophia-Anne-Caruso-in-22Lazarus22-Photo-by-Johan-Persson-747x420.jpg 747w, https://culturalattache.co/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/Michael-C.-Hall-and-Sophia-Anne-Caruso-in-22Lazarus22-Photo-by-Johan-Persson.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption>Sophia Anne Caruso and Michael C. Hall in <em>“Lazarus” </em>(Photo by JohanPersson/Courtesy Dicefm.com)</figcaption></figure> <p>The film revolved around Newton who is an alien that arrives on earth seeking a solution to the lack of water on his planet. In <em>Lazarus</em>, considered a sequel to the film and the novel, finds Newton, 40 years later, living in a penthouse in New York, but not having much of a life. His new assistant is not only finding herself falling for Newton, but also taking on the personality of Mary Lou, the earthling who fell in love with him in the movie. Things get complicated by the arrival of a young muse who knows exactly who Newton is and promises to return him to his planet.</p> <p>Irish playwright Enda Walsh collaborated with Bowie on the book. He’s the playwright of the musical <em>Once</em>, the stunning play <em>Misterman</em> (which featured an absolutely staggering performance by Cillian Murphy) and the films <em>Disco Pigs</em> and <em>Hunger</em>.</p> <p>Bowie uses many of his classic songs in <em>Lazarus</em> including “Heroes,” “All the Young Dudes,” “Life on Mars,” “Absolute Beginners” and “The Man Who Fell to Earth.” The title song, found on his album <em>Blackstar</em> is in the show as are three other new songs.</p> <figure class="wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> <iframe title="Life on Mars from Lazarus Musical (Sophia Anne Caruso) live at the King's Cross Theatre London" width="696" height="392" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/hqT2hu3WrrA?feature=oembed&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> </div></figure> <p>Michael C.
