Rhythm of the Dance is an incredible live show that marks a new era in Irish entertainment, featuring a wealth of Irish talent including World and Irish champion dancers and some of the finest traditional musicians and singers. Combining traditional dance and music with the most up to date stage technology, this two-hour extravaganza takes the audiences on an exhilarating, energy-packed trip through the ages. It’s internationally rated as one of the most popular Irish step dance shows in the world, making it a success with critics and audiences worldwide. With a wonderful, gifted young cast of dancers, musicians and singers, this is a show that has won critical acclaim across 4 continents of the world in 50 countries to over 7 million fans.
From the creation of Rhythm of the Dance in 1998, it has toured consistently internationally and is achieving greater critical acclaim year after year. Now, after 20 Years of showcasing the very best in Irish dance to the world, the show has undergone a process of renewal, reinvigorating the choreography and music to create an even more spectacular performance. Producer Kieran Cavanagh is very excited about the updated format of the show, he hopes that Rhythm of the Dance will be a breathe of fresh air into Irish dance with this traditionally rooted and authentic production.
