An Irish Carol

12/04/2024 to 12/31/2024

1742 Church St NW, Washington, DC 20036

An original work by Keegan favorite Matthew J. Keenan, AN IRISH CAROL is an homage to Dickens’ classic – told as only the Irish can. This comic and touching play, set in a modern Dublin pub, follows one evening in the life of David, a wealthy pub owner who has lost touch with his own humanity in the interest of self-protection and material success. But on this Christmas Eve – challenged by a voice from the past, provoked by those in the present, and faced with the reality of a lonely future – David’s life may change forever. An Irish Carol at the Keegan Theatre, 1742 Church St NW, Washington, DC 20036. December 4 - December 31, 2024 at 8:00 pm Thurs-Sat, 8:00 pm on select Mon-Weds, and 3:00 pm on Sun. Tickets $64 for Adults, $54 for Seniors (62+), Students, and Under 25.
