ONCE The Musical at Harris Center for the Arts

Guy meets Girl in the SMASH-HIT, MULTI-AWARD-WINNING MUSICAL ONCE

Winner of eight Tony Awards including Best Musical, “ONCE uses song & dance in a way I’ve never experienced in an American musical” (New York Times). Based on the Academy Award-winning film, ONCE tells of a Dublin street musician and a young woman who takes a sudden interest in his haunting songs; their unlikely connection turns out to be more complex than the average romance. From the impressive ensemble of actor-musicians who play their own instruments onstage to a set structured to feel like an Irish pub, there is real power in seeing the songs and story unfold live in front of your eyes. “ONCE is unusually fun & heartfelt musical theatre. The cast is on fire!” (New Yorker)
