"A Celtic Christmas by A Taste of Ireland" is a holiday spectacular touring the United States in 2024, fresh from its Off-Broadway season. The show features world-class Irish dancers and musicians, including former World Irish dance champions and stars from Lord of the Dance and Riverdance.
I was so excited to chat with dancer and assistant producer Tyler Watkins about this incredible show coming to The Tar Heel State.
The performance blends various elements including:
- Melodic folk mash-ups
- Acapella tap battles
- Traditional Irish tunes
- Heartfelt ballads
- Classic Christmas carols
The production has garnered significant acclaim with over 150 five-star Facebook reviews and more than 50,000 followers. The show promises 100% live singing and dancing, bridging energetic folk music, Irish dance, and modern tap styles. Each performance runs approximately 110 minutes. The show has been praised for creating an immersive experience that transports audiences to a traditional Celtic landscape filled with excitement and wonder. Audiences can expect an evening of Irish charm, electrifying rhythms, and enthralling entertainment that aims to make them "laugh, cry, and sing into the night".
