Photo Flash: ONCE at South Coast Repertory
"Glorious and inspiring" (Time Out New York), "fun and heartfelt" (The New Yorker),
Once tells the story of a Dublin street musician about to abandon his dream when a beautiful woman takes a sudden interest in his haunting love songs. As the chemistry between them grows, his music soars to new heights, and their connection becomes more than an everyday romance. A captivating tale that will draw you in from the very first note.
