Synopsis
John Tiffany's production of Once, winner of eight 2012 Tony awards including Best New Musical, opens at the Phoenix Theatre on 16 March 2013, starring Declan Bennett and Zrinka Cvitesic.
When an Irish busker and a young Czech mother meet through a shared love of music, their songwriting sparks a deep connection and a tender, longing romance that neither of them could have expected.
With the book by award-winning Irish playwright Enda Walsh (Misterman, The New Electric Ballroom, Chatroom), Once has music and lyrics by Glen Hansard and [Markéta Irglová], and is based on the motion picture written and directed by John Carney.
Other cast include Valda Aviks, Ryan Fletcher, Aidan Kelly, Gareth O'Connor, Michael O'Connor, Miria Parvin, Jos Slovick, Flora Spencer-Longhurst, Jez Unwin and Gabriel Vick.
A celebration of love, friendship and music; book your tickets now to see Once.

Director John Tiffany and designer Bob Crowley have taken the film off ...
