Set in Dublin, MYRA’S STORY has been the smash hit of the past three Edinburgh Fringes. Playing to packed houses, standing ovations and five-star reviews, it has been described by many as the finest, funniest, most heartbreaking piece of theatre they have ever seen. Audiences laugh and cry (often at the same time) as Myra sweeps them along on an exhilarating rollercoaster ride of emotions.
MYRA’S STORY follows a day in the life of middle-aged, homeless Dublin street drinker, Myra McLaughlin. As she begs from passers-by at her regular spot by Ha’Penny Bridge, she relives her incredible backstory. Playing all the larger than life Dublin characters, male and female, acting out all the hilarious/tragic/heartbreaking events from her past that have led her to this pitiful state.
You’ll laugh with Myra. You’ll cry with Myra. What you’ll never do … is forget Myra.

Good use of the space when Jersey Boys isn't playing and glad to see a play going in but pricy. Blurb talks about an Ed Fringe hit coming in, tickets start at £29 but when you click through it is much closer to £49 unless you want back of the dress circle.
I'm very interested but with those prices and just 10 shows, is it going to sell fast or pop-up on offers closer to the time? A Wednesday matinee is very handy if it did...
