Joe & Lauren: Making Music in Boca Grande
“Joe & Lauren: Making Music in Boca Grande,” featuring Hermitage Fellows Joe Iconis and Lauren Marcus, Friday, March 20, 6:30 pm: The iconic Joe Iconis and the marvelous Lauren Marcus are partners in art and life. Iconis wrote the hit score for Tony Award-nominated Broadway musical Be More Chill, the show where Marcus made her Broadway debut playing Brooke Lohst. A celebrated writer and composer, Iconis is recognized as a leading voice in the world of contemporary musical theater, with works spanning Broadway, Off-Broadway, and theaters across the globe. He regularly performs concerts with Marcus and other frequent collaborators as “Joe Iconis & Family” at venues throughout New York. Marcus is a beloved Hermitage artist and performer in her own right – actor, writer, and singer-songwriter are all hats she comfortably and regularly shifts between. Together, they are a New York theater power-couple who will share original work during this beachside sunset concert at Boca Grande. Presented in partnership with Barrier Island Parks Society (BIPS). This Boca Grande program is generously sponsored by Alice & David Court. Registration is required at HermitageArtistRetreat.org ($5/person registration fee).
