The Lesson at 2020 DGF Fellows Virtual Presentation of New Works


Music and Lyrics by Avi Amon & Nolan Doran
Book by Ty Defoe

The Lesson is a fantastical reimagining of a chance encounter between a revolutionary Beethoven and a more-established Mozart who meet in Vienna in 1787. The show is set in an alternate universe that melds the future and past into an entirely new and entirely queer, fun, and... political space. It’s a lesson that will change their lives - and the world - forever.
