Angela’s Ashes – The Musical has its UK premier this September in the Ashcroft Playhouse, Fairfield Halls following two successful tours in Ireland.
Described by The New York Times as a “stunning memoir” back in 1996, the publication of Frank McCourt’s Angela’s Ashes caused a literary sensation. The book climbed quickly to the top of that newspaper’s Bestseller lists and remained there for nearly three years, selling 4 million copies in hardback alone.
McCourt’s memoir of growing up in the ‘Lanes of Limerick’ was followed by a 1999 Alan Parker film. It is now being retold in a vibrant and memorable piece of musical theatre.
Originally developed by Theatre Works and Uncontained Arts at the University of Derby.
Angela’s Ashes runs from Tuesday 24 September – Saturday 5 October.
Tickets start from £15 and are on sale now.
