E-mail Print PDF

The Irish Heritage Society of Milford’s Tara Theatre Company will present its 7th annual production, an Irish romantic comedy, Remembrance, by Graham Reid.  The setting for Remembrance is Belfast, Ireland, and the title refers to the name of the day reserved in Ireland for commemorating the war dead. The play deals with not only with the city’s violence and bigotry, but with the possibility of love's survival, and the disbelief of young people that their elders are capable of romantic love.

** Please note that the play is rated PG-13 due to some content and language.**

Performances will be held on June 13, 14, and 15, at 7:30 pm, at the Stratford Theater, 2422 Main St., Stratford.

Ticket prices:

 $12 for Thurs. 6/13,      $15 for Fri. and Sat., 6/14 and 6/15. 

Special Senior discount (65+ with ID) price of $12 for all performances.

For tickets, call Maureen at 203-874-6273, or Linda at 203-878-2865.

Please invite your friends and family to join you in support of our Tara Theatre!!   Irish comedy and culture at its best!!
