The Lion at Merrimack Repertory Theatre

Singer-songwriter Benjamin Scheuer is known for his stunning lyrics, which have won him such recognition as the 2013 ASCAP Foundation Cole Porter Award for songwriting. With his new show, The Lion, he's doing something different, using his guitar -- actually, six guitars -- to tell his own gripping coming-of-age story. It's a journey from boyhood to manhood, through good times and bad, showing the incredible healing power of music. Don't miss Scheuer's award-winning off-Broadway hit, called "an irresistible winner" and "deeply moving" by New York Daily News, at the Merrimack Repertory Theatre.
