About the Show

Irish Rep presents Eugene O'Neill's story of an Irish immigrant's life in 19th century Boston.

Irish Rep Online, from the Irish Repertory Theatre, presents this streamed performance of Eugene O’Neill’s “A Touch of the Poet.” It’s 1828, and Irish immigrant Con Melody’s Boston inn and tavern are suffering financially. He is forced to face his pride when his daughter, Mary, falls in love with an American man with a small fortune. Ultimately, the immigrant experience and generational divides push Con to the edge.
