Lyons & Pakchar: Beau

After playing Lincoln Center's Broadway Songbook Series and bowing in the 2019 Adirondack Theatre Festival, composing team Lyons and Pakchar's latest new musical Beau, will arrive at Joe's Pub. In Beau, seven actor-musicians tell the story of Ace Baker, who's fatherless until age 12, when a phone call reveals his grandfather Beau has been alive all his life -- and his mother knew. Family secrets unravel as Ace rushes to make up for lost time with a man who changes his life, by putting a guitar in his hand. Their original folk-funk score is a multi-generational investigation and celebration on what it is to be queer, and come out victorious. L & P's other work includes Five Points, which is currently in development with Hamilton's Andy Blankenbuehler.
