Rhythm of the Dance has brought audiences around the world to their feet for over two decades and is returning to the Congress Theatre with a brand-new production Friday 14 July for one-night only!
Rooted in Ireland’s rich culture and heritage, the show takes a different perspective on all things Irish. Featuring world class live musicians, vocalists and champion dancers, the show will be a completely immersive experience.
Join us on a journey through Ireland’s history from the ancient, rich in legend and myth, to the modern, urban Ireland that we see today, bursting at the seams, now more than ever with talent.
Experience flailing fiddles, flutes, and inspiring dances along with live vocalists, all complimented by a top live Irish trad-band of multi-instrumentalist musicians and a sensational sound and light show as seen on TV from China to California and from Siberia to Sydney.
The show was originally created in 1998 for a three-week tour of the United States, the success of this was enough to ensure that over twenty years later it has toured the world consistently and achieved even greater acclaim year after year.
Rhythm of the Dance is an array of everything Irish dance has evolved into, from its roots in ‘Sean Nos’ (meaning old-style), to the militant, clean, modern style we see on stage today. With lyrical and contemporary influences, it will be Irish in essence, with a new edge and promises to be an exploration of how far you can push the boundaries of Irish dance.
