Waking Ned Devine

Based on the beloved film written and directed by Kirk Jones, this new musical tells the story of Ned Devine who has won a fortune in the lottery and his fellow residents in a small Irish village are eager to find ways to share in his newfound wealth. However, there’s a major challenge that Ned’s friends and neighbors must face that sets off a wonderfully funny and life-affirming story about testing friendship and the corrupting power of money.

Waking Ned Devine is directed by Tony Award-Winner John Doyle (The Color Purple, Company, Sweeney Todd), features music and lyrics by Tony and Academy-Award winning duo Markéta Irglová and Glen Hansard (Once) and book by Tony Award-Nominee David Hein (Come From Away).
