BEAUTY SCHOOL DROPOUT PRESENTS: WHERE DID ALL THE BUTTERFLIES GO?

“Where Did All the Butterflies Go?” arrives at Madison Square Garden as a rock/pop program built for a room that measures sound in acres. The bill places Beauty School Dropout alongside NIGHTBREAKERS, tracing a line between pop structure and rock abrasion without treating either as a costume. New York hasn’t had a documented premiere history for this title, but the setting matters: the Garden turns touring music into civic scale. One clear takeaway is how the lineup leans on contrast rather than cohesion, letting tension do the organizing.
