The musical chronicles the disintegration of an Irish family in Dublin in the early 1920s, during the “Troubles” between the Irish Republican Army and the British. It is based on the 1924 play Juno and the Paycock by Sean O’Casey.

The Encores! series will continue in May with No, No, Nanette featuring Mara Davi, Sandy Duncan, Beth Leavel, Rosie O’Donnell, and Shonn Wiley.
