Directed by Charlotte Moore (Finian's Rainbow), ON A CLEAR DAY begins performances tonight, June 15, 2018 at Irish Rep Theatre (132 West 22nd Street) on the Francis J. Greenburger Mainstage, with an opening night set for June 28, for a run through August 12, 2018.

Daisy Gamble is a woman of extrasensory talents - she sings and flowers bloom, and she always knows where you've placed your keys - but it's her smoking habit that leads her to Dr. Mark Bruckner, a psychiatrist who will attempt to hypnotize her addiction away. In Daisy, Dr. Bruckner discovers the case - and perhaps the love - of his life as he unlocks Daisy's past self, an 18th century British aristocrat named Melinda Welles. Mark becomes increasingly enamored of Melinda as he watches her relive her great love affair with Edward Moncrief. All is going well until Mark decides to publish his findings, and Daisy realizes she's been unwittingly along for the ride!

After last year's acclaimed run of Finian's Rainbow, Irish Rep presents Burton Lane's other great Broadway musical, On a Clear Day You Can See Forever, written with Alan Jay Lerner, newly adapted by Director Charlotte Moore. This 1965 musical boasts one of Broadway's most beautiful scores, with songs including "What Did I Have That I Don't Have?" and the title song "On a Clear Day You Can See Forever," to performed by an on-stage ensemble led by Conductor Gary Adler.

Joining Stephen Bogardus as "Dr. Mark Bruckner," John Cudia as "Edward Moncrief," and Melissa Errico as "Daisy Gamble/Melinda Welles" will be Florrie Bagel (Jerry Springer: The Opera) as "Flora," WilliamBellamy (The Emperor Jones) as "Ensemble," Rachel Coloff (Urinetown) as "Mrs. Hatch," Peyton Crim (Finian's Rainbow) as "Ensemble," Caitlin Gallogly ("Silicon Valley") as "Janie Preston," Matt Gibson (Ragtime) as "Ensemble," Daisy Hobbs (Aladdin) as "Muriel Benson," and Craig Waletzko (Kinky Boots National Tour) as "Conrad."
