Conceived and written by Lyons (Chicken and Biscuits), with music by Pakchar (Back to the Future: The Musical) and Lyons, Beau the Musical features eight actor-musicians telling the story of Ace Baker, a young queer man whose life is forever changed when he discovers his deceased grandfather is actually still alive.
Bryan McCaffrey and Leah Michalos are producing the encore run in association with The StoryLine Project and Out of the Box Theatrics.
