“My parents were for a long time mainly famous for being excellent partiers”

Told through the eyes of their adult daughter Scottie, Beautiful Little Fool tells the story of Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald: brilliant, tempestuous and infamous.

Years on from the Roaring Twenties, with the party long over, the lives and writings of Scottie’s legendary parents are brought vividly to life in this new musical.

Beautiful Little Fool

Three generations. Timeless ballads. One unforgettable story.

From award-winning singer-songwriter Finn Anderson (‘Islander’ (Southwark Playhouse Borough, Off Broadway), ‘Streets’) and West End director Tania Azevedo (‘&Juliet’, ‘But I’m a Cheerleader’), Ballad Lines is a heart-opening new musical that shines a light on identity, belonging and the stories we choose to carry with us.

Sarah thought she’d left her childhood behind. A queer woman living in New York City, she’s long severed ties with the folk traditions of her upbringing. But when old ballads resurface, so do the voices of her ancestors — pulling her on a life-changing journey across time.
