An Irish Carol Performances

Starting December 5th through the 21st, a rotating cast of Irish music buds and I will be setting the vibe for a play called "An Irish Carol" with the Greater Boston Stage Co. in Stoneham, MA! I’ll be at every show, and will have either Cara Frankowicz (fiddle), Clare Fraser (fiddle), or Dan Accardi (accordion) joining me to lay down the melodies. Unlike last year's Revels, this isn't a musical - we're just playing a half hour of tunes as theater goers arrive before the play officially starts.

While the music may not be the main focus, I highly recommend checking this out! I got to catch a rehearsal last night, and it was really good. It’s a modern take on the Christmas Carol story, and the actors have fabulous chemistry and comedic timing with one another, and it ends on a sweet, poignant note of reunion that made me a little misty-eyed. If you want an event to get you in the seasonal spirit without the usual schmaltzy, over the top Christmas vibes, I think you’ll really like this!
