You can ring in the New Year with music and dancing at the Irish Center on Thursday night, then start the new year off right on January 2 with Barleyjuice at the Sellersville Theatre. And there are plenty of sessions all week to keep your Irish up.
But the real treat starts on Thursday with the return of “The Irish and How They Got That Way,” a play by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Frank McCourt, who also gave us “Angela’s Ashes.” “Tis,” and “Teacher Man,” before he died in 2009 from melanoma.
The play, at the Kimmel Center, mixes songs and stories, sentiment and humor, irony and sweetness, as only McCourt could do it.
