Irish Affair - Public Dress Rehearsal
With two months to go until Irish Affair takes to the stage of the O’Reilly Theatre, the one-night only performance is sold-out. With demand so high, the producers have decided to open the dress rehearsal to the public on Thursday, 26 June at 7.30pm.

Dress rehearsal for highly anticipated musical Irish Affair open to the public due to high demand! Irish Affair will be introduced by the legendary lyricist and Executive Producer of Irish Affair, Sir Tim Rice, who has a plethora of global credits to his name.

Set in the rural village of Fethard-on-Sea, Co Wexford in the 1950s, Irish Affair - A Love Story for all Time, is based on the true story of married couple Sean and Sheila Cloney née Kelly, one Catholic and one Protestant, and the inspirational journey of how their love drove them to overcome the religious and political obstacles which divided the nation and became an international incident.

Composed by Stuart Brayson

Directed by Deirdre Masterson

Musical arrangements by David Wray
