ON A CLEAR DAY YOU CAN SEE FOREVER Extends Through September 6  Image

Irish Repertory Theatre announces an extension for On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, which features music by Burton Lane and book and lyrics by Alan Jay Lerner. Directed by Charlotte Moore (Finian's Rainbow), On a Clear Day You Can See Forever began previews on June 15, 2018 at Irish Rep Theatre (132 West 22nd Street) on the Francis J. Greenburger Mainstage and opened June 28. It was scheduled for a run through August 12 and will now play through September 6, 2018.

Daisy Gamble is a woman of extrasensory talents - she sings and flowers bloom, and she always knows where you've placed your keys - but it's her smoking habit that leads her to Dr. Mark Bruckner, a psychiatrist who will attempt to hypnotize her addiction away. In Daisy, Dr. Bruckner discovers the case - and perhaps the love - of his life as he unlocks Daisy's past self, an 18th century British aristocrat named Melinda Welles. Mark becomes increasingly enamored of Melinda as he watches her relive her great love affair with Edward Moncrief. All is going well until Mark decides to publish his findings, and Daisy realizes she's been unwittingly along for the ride!

After last year's acclaimed run of Finian's Rainbow, Irish Rep is proud to present Burton Lane's other great Broadway musical, On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, written with Alan Jay Lerner, newly adapted by Director Charlotte Moore.
