Irish Repertory Theatre's A CHILD'S CHRISTMAS IN WALES Sets New Opening Night

Off-Broadway's award-winning Irish Repertory Theatre (Charlotte Moore, Artistic Director and Ciarán O'Reilly, Producing Director) proudly presents their annual holiday offering, this year a revival of Dylan Thomas's classic A CHILD'S CHRISTMAS IN WALES. Adapted and directed by Charlotte Moore, A CHILD'S CHRISTMAS IN WALES features two-time Tony Award-winner John Cullum. Performances begin Tuesday, November 24th, 2015.

Due to a theatre renovation taking place at its home base, The Irish Rep's current productions are being presented at the DR2 Theatre (103 East 15th Street in Union Square). A return to its renovated theater on West 22nd Street in Chelsea is planned for Spring 2016.

The iconic A CHILD'S CHRISTMAS IN WALES features both traditional and contemporary holiday music. A snowy Christmas Day in Wales is seen through the eyes of a child . . . ghost stories are whispered, cakes are gobbled up, and wild Indians roam the city park . . . while uncles, stuffed with pudding, snort and groan on the couch on a lazy holiday afternoon.

Joining John Cullum in the cast of A CHILD'S CHRISTMAS IN WALES are Jacque Carnahan, Katie Fabel, Kenneth Quinney Francoeur, and Ashley Robinson.

A CHILD'S CHRISTMAS IN WALES has musical direction by Mark Hartman.
