LOGO COURTESY OF MTI

On the streets of Dublin, an Irish musician and a Czech immigrant are drawn together by their shared love of music. Over the course of one fateful week, an unexpected friendship and collaboration quickly evolves into a powerful love story. The winner of eight Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Once is the only show to have music that won a Grammy, Olivier, Academy, and Tony Award. Featuring all of the magical songs from the critically-acclaimed film, this musical is a celebration of life and love that draws you in from the very first note and never lets go. Features students from JMU’s School of Theatre and Dance and School of Music.

ONCE is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com
