This often took place spontaneously in kitchens, taverns and at family gatherings. In small villages across the land the percussion of the dance steps fuelled the exciting pulse of the music and its ancient, compelling rhythms.

These traditional arts endure today in much the same way and evoke a time and place steeped in legend, lore and enchantment. The Magic Dance of Ireland offers one of the most authentic Irish cultural experiences of any production, anywhere.

The show is live and features the finest award-winning artists performing today.

The audience at The Deco look set to experience a spectacular evening of traditional Irish dance, music and song enhanced by stunning costumes, lighting and sound.

This is indeed, the Magic of Irish Dance.
