Frank McCourt's The Irish...And How They Got That Way is
an irreverent but affectionate history of the Irish in America that
mingles laughter and sentiment in a tapestry of classical songs and
stories. The production encapsulates the most tumultuous times of the
past century with the vibrant humor and bitter irony that had become the
trademark of the author of the critically acclaimed biographies Angela's
Ashes, 'Tis, and Teacher Man.
