The comedy-drama TV series “Life & Beth” on Hulu was created by Amy Schumer. It centers on Beth, a successful Manhattan wine distributor who has been in a committed relationship with her lover for a long time.
Her seemingly ideal existence abruptly alters, though, when she has an accident and begins seeing flashbacks to her adolescent years. After that, Beth chooses to reconsider her life goals after realizing what truly influences her personality.
Life & Beth is set against the stunning background of New York and is a masterful portrayal of the effects of unresolved adolescent issues on adult life, as well as starting again after a midlife crisis.
In addition, the vibrant graphics exquisitely balance the heartfelt story and leave viewers wondering where the show is filmed. In this article, we’re going to take a look at all the filming locations of the show.
Filming Locations
Life & Beth is filmed all around the state of New York, but especially in Dutchess County, Westchester County, New York City, and Long Island. The first season’s principal filming ran from April 2021 until July 16, 2021.
Together, the actors and crew had a great time, and they routinely posted behind-the-scenes photos on social media. Let’s now examine the filming locations in more detail.
Long Island, New York
Long Island, which is located quite close to New York City, serves as another filming site for the show. A major portion of the first season was shot in the Nassau County hamlet of Rockville Centre.
Since Amy Schumer, the show’s creator, and lead actress, is from there, it gives the show a much-needed authentic feel.
Furthermore, scenes were shot at Angelo’s Pizzeria, which is located at 360 Hempstead Avenue in Malverne, and Peter’s Clam Bar, which is located at 600 Long Beach Road in Island Park.
Long Island is a well-liked summer vacation spot for the wealthy and a significant center for transportation, biotechnology, and scientific research. The popular film The Godfather was also filmed on the island.
Westchester County, New York
Another gorgeous Hudson Valley site, Westchester County, serves as the filming location for some part of the show. The genuine Mamaroneck Fireman’s Carnival, which took place in late June 2021 in the town of Mamaroneck, served as the backdrop for the fairground scenes in season 1.
The villages of Mamaroneck and Larchmont make up the town. Westchester County served as the backdrop for several films like The Wolf of Wall Street, The Irishman, and The Post, as well as television shows, including Scenes from a Marriage and The Flight Attendant.
Dutchess County, New York
The majority of “Life & Beth” is filmed in the upstate New York state of Dutchess County, in the Hudson Valley. A party scene was filmed at Staatsburg, a hamlet in Hyde Park, whereas the farmers market scene from season one was filmed in the village of Red Hook.
Further filming was done at Red Wing Park in the border town of East Fishkill and Poughkeepsie, the county capital of Dutchess County. In the first season, many local actors from these places appear as extras.
Nestled between the Hudson River and the Connecticut-New York border sits Dutchess County. The breathtakingly beautiful hilly landscape is dotted with majestic mountains, as well as ponds and streams.
Dutchess County was also used for filming television shows like The Sex Lives of College Girls, and I Know This Much Is True.
New York City, New York
A significant amount of the show is shot in New York City, a populated city located in one of the world’s greatest natural harbors.
The Manhattan borough, notably Riverside Park and the West Village section of Greenwich Village, was the site of several filming locations for Season 1.
New York City is a global center for politics, entertainment, education, culture, and tourism. It is home to several well-known sites, including Central Park, the Brooklyn Bridge, Times Square, the Statue of Liberty, and the UN Headquarters.
New York City was also used for filming several television series and motion pictures, including The Gilded Age, DMZ, Inventing Anna, and West Side Story.
