Benjamin Scheuer’s one-man show, The Lion, tells a coming-of-age story with jangling, jiving folk tunes picked playfully on six different guitars. In the musical narrative, the thirtysomething storyteller dives into his relationship with his late father and his battle with cancer at the young age of 29. It’s an inspiring performance that Broadwayworld.com called “the first must-see of the season.” Vermonters will have the chance to hear songs from the show before Scheuer takes his act on the road: He’ll be stopping for one night only at the Weston Playhouse. Hear him roar.
Price: $35.
