Stage Musical of Once Set to Debut in the Fall

Any excuse to post "Falling Slowly," is an excuse I'll gladly take. The New York Times reports that Irish playwright Enda Walsh and the Scottish director John Tiffany will collaborate on the stage adaptation of Once for Broadway. The current plan is to open the show -- which will feature music and lyrics by Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova -- in the fall. Assume this film-to-stage adaptation will go better than Spider-Man.
