Stars gather at Anglo musical

Despite Gabriel Byrne’s scathing comments the Irish film star joined a gathering at the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre last night for one of the most eagerly awaited musicals of recent years.

Earlier, one of the producers of Anglo: The Musical, Darren Smith, joked that he wanted Byrne to star in The Gathering: The Musical. When asked if he would be interested, Byrne laughed: “That’s a good one. You never know, it sounds like a great laugh. We’ll see.”

Byrne joined stars, celebrities, and even some brave politicians who came out in force to walk the red carpet.
