About the Show
Jan. 24 - Feb. 25, 2024
by Marie Jones, Directed by Marcela Lorca, Music Direction and Compositions by Jason Hansen
A rural Irish village is turned upside down by the arrival of an American film crew. When Charlie and Jake are cast as extras in the movie, they discover that Hollywood’s romanticized Ireland stands in stark contrast to the reality of their daily lives. This Olivier Award-winning comedy is a rollicking, poignant tale brought to life by two actors portraying a colorful cast of dozens.
Starring Tom Reed and Reed Sigmund.
