The Irish . . . and How They Got That Way
by Frank McCourt
August 27 - Sept 14, 2025
Maine State Music Theatre and The Public Theatre proudly present a not-to-be-missed co-production of The Irish… And How They Got That Way! This lively and heartfelt musical revue, written by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Frank McCourt (Angela’s Ashes), offers a stirring tribute to the Irish-American experience. Through a seamless blend of storytelling, humor, and music, the production showcases beloved ballads like “Danny Boy” and “The Rose of Tralee” alongside contemporary hits from U2, creating a theatrical journey that is both poignant and uplifting.
Starring MSMT favorites Curt Dale Clark, David Girolmo, Heidi Kettenring, and Charis Leos, and directed and choreographed by the acclaimed Marc Robin, this production promises an evening of exceptional performances and unforgettable moments.
