Pasek and Paul are an American songwriting duo and composing team consisting of Benj Pasek and Justin Paul. They have composed songs and music for musical theater, films and television series.
After graduating from the University of Michigan, and receiving an award from the Jonathan Larson Performing Arts Foundation, they began composing music for stage musicals such as Edges (2005) James and the Giant Peach (2010), and A Christmas Story: The Musical (2012). For the latter, they received their first Tony Award nomination for Best Original Score.
In 2016, they composed songs for Damien Chazelle's 2016 romantic musical film La La Land alongside Justin Hurwitz. The songs "City of Stars" and "Audition (The Fools Who Dream)" were nominated for Best Original Song at the 89th Academy Awards, with the former later winning the award. Also in 2016, their work on the musical Dear Evan Hansen earned them the Tony Award for Best Original Score. Two years later, the soundtrack album for the musical won the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.
In 2017, they were nominated again for the Academy Award for Best Original Song for "This Is Me" from the film The Greatest Showman. In 2024, they won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Original Music and Lyrics for the song "Which of the Pickwick Triplets Did It?", featured in the episode "Sitzprobe" from the comedy series Only Murders in the Building. With their Emmy win in September 2024, they became the 20th and 21st EGOT winners.[1]
