Months back Emilys Irish Dance group bought a bunch of tickets for their Irish Dancing group to go watch "Lord of the Dance" that features Irish dancing. Last night was the performance. It was amazing! While the troupe no longer features Michael Flatley they had an impressive performance. Just ask Steph.
A few things I learned is that the "Lord of the Dance" is based on ancient Irish Folklore. The story follows the character "Lord of the Dance" and his fight against the evil dark lord from taking over Planet Ireland. The "Lord of the Dance" defeats the dark lord's invasion with help from a little spirit. There is also a story with a "love vs lust" theme expressed through dance throughout the show. "Saoirse, the Irish Cailín" fights for the love of the "Lord of the Dance" against the wicked "Morrighan, the Temptress".
From the moment the lights went out and the energy began, and we were captured by the magical beauty of the Irish. The dancing, singing, music, including the violin solos was absolutely amazing. Its no wonder why its " The worlds greatest dance show" ever! Thanks Girls for a fun night out!
