Our homecoming season begins with our most popular — and in this volatile election season, especially timely — musical, Finian’s Rainbow.
Our most loved musical returns to the Irish Rep stage this fall, twelve years after it was first revived to great acclaim. Tony-nominee Melissa Errico will reprise her celebrated performance as “Sharon” as we start our homecoming season in true Irish style!
The groundbreaking 1947 musical follows an Irishman who steals a feisty leprechaun’s pot of gold and escapes with his daughter, Sharon, to Missitucky, a mythical region, part of the Jim Crow South. The daughter and the sprite each find romance with others, but also encounter bigotry, economic disparity and cultural injustice
music by Burton Lane
book by E.Y. Harburg & Fred Saidy
lyrics by E.Y. Harburg
adapted & directed by Charlotte Moore
PERFORMANCE SCHEDULE:
WEDNESDAY, FRIDAY & SATURDAY @ 8 PM
THURSDAY @ 7 PM
WEDNESDAY, SATURDAY & SUNDAY 3 PM
