It was all hands on deck as Angela’s Ashes The Musical officially launched on Tuesday 25 April on the M.V Cill Airne, ahead of the shows summer season at the Bord Gais Energy Theatre this July.

Based on the Pulitzer prize-winning book by Frank McCourt Angela’s Ashes The Musical will play Bord Gais Energy Theatre from 18- 30 July 2017, and will also have dates at Limerick’s Lime Tree Theatre (6-15 July) and the Grand Opera House Belfast (1-5 August).
