Frank and Bean: The Musical? is the story of a hotdog and a baked bean who meet each other in the forest. Frank is on a solo writing retreat, looking for a quiet, private place to fill his secret notebook with poems. But then Bean rolls in and sets up camp directly next to Frank– all HONKS, TOOTS, and BANGS on his many instruments! Good gravy! Can they be friends? Can they make music together? Can a hotdog and a baked bean really be the stars of a musical?! Join us and find out! Book & Lyrics by A. J. Freeman, Music and Music Direction by Kristin Bair. This concert production is directed by Frank Galgano, choreographed by Emma Benson, produced in collaboration with Brainstorm Theatrics, with costume design by Sara Ritz, and prop design by Kaitlin Pokorny and Sara Ritz. Frank and Bean: The Musical? is based on the series Frank and Bean written by Jamie Michalak, illustrated by Bob Kolar, and published by Candlewick Press.
Lincoln Center’s free Storytime series returns to The Garden at Damrosch Park—and this year due to popular demand, there is a second event every Wednesday! Curated by The Library for the Performing Arts, this storytime event presents a children's book reading with live musical theater incorporated to keep kids of all ages enraptured and engaged!
