REDDING, Calif. — A music and dance show is bringing Irish culture to Redding this weekend.
“A Taste of Ireland – The Irish Music & Dance Sensation” has Celtic dance, live music, along with Irish storytelling.
The cast includes former World Irish Dance champions and dancers from Lord of the Dance and Riverdance.
Dancer Callum O’Neill told the Northstate’s News it’s a mix of classic Irish favorites with a modern twist.
“The show itself is very informative. You can also go away with learning about the culture you may never have known before,” O’Neill said before adding, “It’s very personal to the audience. There’s a lot of times where we may break the fourth wall… Every night, every crowd always offers something different.”
The show is based around the history and culture of Ireland, all the way up to the present day.
There are around 14 dancers, three musicians and four crew members.
This year marks the first time the show is touring in California. It’ll be at the Cascade Theatre in Redding on Sunday, Sept. 28. It starts at 3:30 p.m.
Ticket prices start at $46.50.
You can find tickets on the Cascade Theatre’s website here or at asteofirelandshow.com.
