Once at theREP


*The event has already taken place on this date: Sun, 08/10/2025
Fall in love with the story of an Irish musician and a Czech immigrant who connect over their shared passion for music on the streets of Dublin. Over the course of one fateful week, an unexpected friendship quickly evolves into an inspirational musical collaboration. As the music soars to powerful new heights, the unlikely connection turns out to be deeper and more complex than an everyday romance. From the very first note, “Once” draws you in and never lets go. This emotionally captivating musical is the only show to have music that won an Academy Award®, a Grammy Award®, an Olivier Award and a Tony Award®. Featuring all the magical songs from the critically acclaimed film, including the Oscar-winning “Falling Slowly” this beautiful, joyously uplifting show strikes an unforgettable chord in audiences and speaks to the power of music to connect us all.
