Once

Once
This is not a tourist trap. Since it opened in March 2012, Once has won eight Tony's with no gimmicks, just its startling sincerity and beautiful music. Centering on the love story between a Dublin street musician and a Czech immigrant, Once reminds you why it is your fantasy to be serenaded by a Dublin street musician. Beforehand, grab a cocktail at the Rum House, right around the corner. This piano bar provides the kind of jaunty, old-fashioned atmosphere that will make you feel like the cultured, theater-fiend you always imagined yourself to be.
