''The Irish… and How They Got That Way'' is an Off-Broadway musical first performed in 1997 at the Irish Repertory Theatre. With book by Frank McCourt, the play featured an eclectic mix of Irish music: ranging from the traditional "Danny Boy" to U2's "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For." == Development ==
Recognizing a 1990s interval of cultural Hibernophilia, Frank McCourt wrote "The Irish… and How They Got That Way", which premiered in 1997 at the Irish Repertory Theatre, where McCourt had previously acted. The play combines primary documents, such as news, letters, photos, paintings, and journals, either in spoken words or in projections upon the backdrops〔 to illustrate the Irish-American struggle over the prior 150 years.〔 Press notes described it as 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." The show was revived at the same theatre in 2000, and again in 2010 with some script changes for the one-year anniversary of McCourt's death on July 19.〔〔 Previewed from July 14 and scheduled to run from July 22 to September 5,〔〔 the show was extended through September 26 due to enthusiastic reviews and responses.〔
