Angela’s Ashes – The Musical makes it UK premier in this major musical adaptation of Frank McCourt’s memoir. The story is brought to life in this emotional telling of a childhood in Limerick and beyond, featuring unforgettable songs and melodies, told with a rare lyricism and a warm inimitable sense of humour.
As his parents struggle to provide for him and his brothers in 1940s Ireland, we follow young Frank’s escapades and experiences in a Dickensian landscape peopled by a drunken father, a helpless mother, pompous priests, bullying schoolmasters and money-lenders culminating in his defiant escape to a new life in America.
A haunting score adds to the emotional impact and the humour of the story. Angela’s Ashes has that rare gift of bringing an audience to tears one minute, laughing out loud the next – by turns, deeply moving and riotously funny, this heartwarming musical promises to be one of the major theatrical events.

Sunday Business Post
"Winning Performances...it radiates confidence"
The Irish Times
"Angela's Ashes - The Musical is the best kind of theatre; it pokes, it prods, it excites, it delights, it uplifts; it touches the soul and the heart and the mind. I belly-laughed, I cried; I was transported"

Brilliant show
29 September 2019
We really enjoyed Angela's Ashes last night, lots of humour brought to a sad story,very moving. The lady that played Angela was outstanding. We were told before the show that the understudy would be taking the part and she did not disappoint. Thoroughly recommend it.
