The 2018 Tony Award winner for best revival of a musical, and from the composers of such musicals as Suessical and Anastasia - “Once…” is a musical rarely done by children’s theatre due to the sophisticated nature of the play and is going to be a truly unique theatrical experience “in-the-round”. It is heavily centered around it’s small ensemble of storytellers, and leaves room for every artist involved to shine in a new way!
