Dress up for the funeral and be prepared upon arrival to meet a crazy Irish-Catholic family who have all gathered for a final, over-the-top farewell celebration. Audience members can interact with the cast, join in or sit back and relax. There will be a upscale Irish dinner and a wake to honor the memory of dear ole' Rory. This Irish celebration is full of drinking, toasting, dancing and singing – a hilarious form of entertainment full of twists and turns that will leave you and your friends in stitches

When: Mulligan's Wake runs every Thursday in March with added shows March 12th, March 13th, and a
SPECIAL Wednesday March 17th St. Paddy's Show with LIVE Music!
