The musical follows Lila and her band, The Lonely Few, who have a standing gig at Paul's Juke Joint in Kentucky. When an established musician, Amy, gives them a chance to join her on tour, love blossoms between Lila and Amy.

The Lonely Few also features scenic design by Sibyl Wickersheimer, costume design by Samantha C. Jones, lighting design by Adam Honoré, sound design by Jonathan Deans and Mike Tracey, orchestrations by Zoe Sarnak and Bryan Perri, and arrangements by Sarnak. Perri is the music supervisor, Myrna Conn is the music director, and Tomoko Akaboshi is the music coordinator.

The production stage manager is Bess Marie Glorioso with casting by The Telsey Office's Beth Lipari and Phyllis Schuringa.

The musical was originally commissioned and produced by Geffen Playhouse.
