Once Reviews

Stage and Cinema- Highly Recommended

'...If you have watched the movie, trust me, this is better. While I love the rawness of the film, in which the songs were written, performed, and acted out by Glen Hansard, and Markéta Irglová, this is a fleshed-out vision with better pacing and craft. Most importantly, the generosity of the story was not lost in the stage adaptation. In fact, the emotional journey of seeing the band coming together slowly is far more emotionally satisfying. The 2007 Oscar-winning song “Falling Slowly” remains in the stage version."
