About the Show

Irish Rep presents a recorded version of the classic musical about a family dealing with change.

In this heartwarming musical, the Smith family grapples with life changes and new love in a bustling St. Louis just before the 1904 World’s Fair. This special digital adaption from Charlotte Moore will include hit tunes, such as “The Trolley Song,” “The Boy Next Door,” and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas.” This new digital production, filmed and edited remotely amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, is an abridged version of the Broadway musical.
