Once Reviews
Stage Scene LA- Highly Recommended
"...Chance Theater opens their 27th season with a gorgeously staged and performed production of the 2012 Broadway smash Once, easily one of the most charming and heartstrings-tugging musicals of the past 27 years."
Stage Raw- Recommended
"...Once, the 2012 Tony Award–winning musical based on the 2007 indie film, is a fairy tale in which the fairy slips out before granting the wish. The resolution that seems predestined from the moment the two main characters meet on a Dublin street proves far more nuanced; whatever happy ending exists is complicated by realism, maturity and emotional restraint."
Broadway World- Highly Recommended
"...Once is a charming contemporary musical at the award-winning Chance Theatre in Anaheim, California. At once romantic, yearning, wistful, melancholy and tenderly life-affirming, Once is a quiet gem of a musical that is hard not to love. The deeply lovely, Irish folk-inspired music by Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová is Academy Award Winning, Tony Award Winning, and Grammy Award Winning."
