Audiences are raving about Actors' Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre's South Florida regional premiere production of ONCE. Performances began on Wednesday, February 28 and will run through Sunday, March 25. Get a first look at the show in photos below!

Winner of 8 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, ONCE is a truly original Broadway experience. Featuring an impressive ensemble of actor/musicians who play their own instruments onstage, ONCE tells the enchanting tale of a Dublin street musician who's about to give up on his dream when a beautiful young woman takes a sudden interest in his music. Emotionally captivating and theatrically breathtaking, ONCE draws you in from the very first note and never lets go. It's an unforgettable story about going for your dreams and the power of music to connect us all.

Directed by David Arisco, the production stars Ben Hope, who made his 2012 Broadway debut in ONCE, as Guy. Elizabeth Nestlerode, fresh from a three-month run of ONCE at Florida Studio Theatre, stars as Girl. Both are joined by Ryan McCurdy (Broadway: Multiple appearances for and with the original company of ONCE), Joanne Borts (Broadway: Original cast of ONCE), Chris Blisset (ONCE at Florida Studio Theatre), Stephen G. Anthony (The Book Club Play, August: Osage County at Actors' Playhouse), Cody Craven (ONCE at Midtown Arts Center), Margaret Dudasik (ONCE at Weston Playhouse), Michael Friedman, Anna Lise Jensen (Finding Mona Lisa at Actors' Playhouse), Andreina "Nina" Kasper and Barry J.
