Tony Award nominee Rory O'Malley (THE BOOK OF MORMON) will debut the world premiere of his autobiographical show, PUB CRAWL, at Joe's Pub on March 10, 2014 at 7:30pm.
PUB CRAWL is Rory's coming of age story that tells the tale of being raised in an Irish pub on the west side of Cleveland by his single mom and all of the bar's eclectic patrons. Using classic Irish pub songs from The Wolftones, U2, Van Morrison and more, the evening will feature music direction by Tony and Grammy Award winner, Stephen Oremus.
Come kick off your St. Patrick's Day celebration a week early and see why raising an Irish kid doesn't take a village... it takes a pub.
Tickets are available at www.JoesPub.com or by calling 212-967-7555.
