"Star of the Sea" is a production by Galway-based theatre company Moonfish Theatre. It is freely adapted from Joseph O’Connor's bestselling novel of the same name. Set in 1847 aboard the ship the Star of the Sea as it journeys from Cobh to New York during the Great Famine, the production enjoyed a sold-out tour in various cities in Ireland. The show will tour in the New England region during the 2017-18 season to explore New England's rich Irish history.
