Details

Life isn't easy growing up in the lanes of 1930's Limerick, especially for a young Irish Catholic boy, but McCourt's inspiring story of survival is a testament to the strength and tenacity of the human spirit. A world-renowned best seller that became a major motion picture, Angela's Ashes has now been adapted into a stage musical that conveys the story's inherent warmth and humour through a score of original songs.
