"Once" the Power of Music to Connect All of Us
"Once" the Power of Music to Connect All of Us
Sat, 03/22/2014 - 12:00pm - 1:00pm
Join host Robert Hammond and his guest Evan Harrington, who is currently traveling the country in the Broadway tour of Once in the role of Billy.
Winner of eight 2012 Tony Awards including Best Musical, Once is an original Broadway experience. Featuring an ensemble of actor/musicians who play their own instruments onstage, Once tells the enchanting tale of a Dublin street musician who's about to give up on his dream when a beautiful young woman takes a sudden interest in his haunting love songs.
As the chemistry between them grows, his music soars to powerful new heights... but their unlikely connection turns out to be deeper and more complex than your everyday romance. Emotionally captivating and theatrically breathtaking, ONCE draws you in from the very first note and never lets go. It's an unforgettable story about going for your dreams... not living in fear... and the power of music to connect all of us.
Once will be in Rochester March 18 through March 23. Ticket information is available at RBTL.org.
