Dream Hou$e at Long Wharf Theatre

Sunday’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade again proved the point. People of every ethnicity and creed celebrated with an easy, inclusive cheer leavened further by a three-year wait for this communal ritual.

Today, on the holiday itself, enjoy these images from parade day, then keep the feeling going at The Trinity, The Playwright, Delaney’s, Duffy’s, Diesel or Stella Blues.
