Book by Enda Walsh, Music & Lyrics by Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova, based on the motion picture written and directed by John Carney.
Winner of eight Tony Awards®, Once tells the unforgettable story of a Dublin street musician and a piano-playing Czech immigrant drawn together by their shared love of music. Over the course of one fateful week, an unexpected friendship quickly evolves into a powerful but complicated love story. With an ensemble cast of local actor-musicians playing their instruments live on stage, Once is an uplifting, modern-day musical that reminds us of the power of music to connect us all.

Reviews
Cast of ‘Once’ Busking in Cambridge, March 2022

There are few musicals which offer the opportunity for a fully integrated cast of musicians, singers and actors and we were delighted with the fantastic response to the show. Here are a few comments from our audience members:
“We felt as though we were at the West End”
“It was extraordinary…the best thing I’ve seen in ages, and certainly the best thing I’ve ever seen at the ADC by quite some margin”
“A real privilege to see this – utterly beautiful magic”
