ABOUT ONCE
Once, the multi-award-winning Irish musical drama, returns to the Olympia Theatre, Dublin from 2 July – 27 August, 2016. Once is full of glorious music and authentic Irish charm. With songs including the Oscar-winning Falling Slowly, this funny, moving and life-affirming love story has captured hearts around the world.
Based on the movie sensation of the same name, filmed and set in Dublin, the show tells the life-changing love story of ‘Guy’ and ‘Girl’, two musicians – he’s Irish, she’s Czech – who meet by chance on a Dublin street and create something wonderful together. Once features music and lyrics by Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová and a Tony award-winning book by Enda Walsh.
Once is about the power of music and following your dreams, wherever they may take you. Seeing it where it all began, at home in Dublin, is incredibly special.
