The Jolly Beggars at Center Stage Theatre

Center Stage Theater is excited to bring back The Jolly Beggars Band in time for St. Patrick's Weekend. Cabarets at Center Stage are festive events where our theatre is set up nightclub style with tables and chairs and patrons bring their own refreshments. The doors open at 7:00 p.m. so you have time to eat, share and socialize. The band starts at 8:00 p.m. Call the box office at 203-225-6079 to reserve a table and get into the holiday spirit. The Jolly Beggars bring the rich tradition of Celtic folk music and storytelling to modern day audiences. Based out of Connecticut, their traditional songs and musical arrangements have exposed many to the joys of Celtic music. They tell traditional stories from Irish folklore and intersperse their musical arrangements with traditional reels and jigs. Characterized by their tight harmonies and use of guitars, mandolin, tin whistles, octave mandolin, mandola, tenor banjo, double bass, bodhran, spoons, and more, The Jolly Beggars have quickly built a solid following and continue to spread their music around the east coast. The band performs music that is largely Celtic in origin (Irish and Scottish), with some pieces coming from an extension of that music in other cultures.
