Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day, the Irish dance spectacular, “Rhythm of the Dance,” will be performed at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 14, at the James Lum-ber Center for the Performing Arts at the College of Lake County.
Produced in Ireland, the show is an inspiring epic, reliving the journey of the Irish Celts throughout his-tory.
This two-hour dance and music extravaganza contains a wealth of talent derived from all areas of Irish life, including a live band, three Irish tenors and more than 20 dancers. Using modern art forms of dance and music, this richly costumed show is one of the most popular Irish step dance shows in the world.
The show features a wealth of Irish talent, and uses a storyline that illus-trates – with music, dance and story – the journey of the Irish Celts throughout his-tory. Combining traditional dance and music with the most up-to-date stage tech-nology, the show is a thou-sand-year-old story executed with all the advantages of the modern day stage show.
“Rhythm of the Dance” is directed and produced by Kieran Cavanagh and cho-reographed by Doireann Car-ney. The music was com-posed by Carl Hession. The show has won critical ac-claim across four continents of the world in 36 countries to over 5 million fans. For more information or to view a video preview, visit www.rhythmofthedance.com.
