Lloyd Beckmann, Beekeeper
by Tim Stitz, Kelly Somes

Based on a true story Lloyd Beckmann Beekeeper is the tale of a Queensland battler as told through his grandson’s eyes.

In a one man show Tim Stitz conveys Lloyd as the stoic Queensland battler, a man with a passion for bees, who tried his hand at mining, honey production, growing paw paws, and at retirement ended up going bust.

This one-man show has emerged from conversations between Tim Stitz and his grandfather and traces Lloyd’s romance with bees through family history, inheritance and the ripening of age.
