Irish Christmas in America: Presented by the Irish Cultural Center
The Irish Cultural Center is excited to announce this spectacular Christmas event for the whole family, coming to the Veritas Auditorium at Elms College, on Sunday, December 14 at 2:00 p.m.
The hugely popular Irish Christmas in America show, now in its 10th season, features top Irish music, song and dance in an engaging performance rich in history, humour and boundless energy. Produced by Oisín Mac Diarmada of award-winning lrish group Téada, the 2014 tour brings back the amazing Séamus Begley, (TG4 Traditional Singer of the Year) along with his daughter Méabh Begley.
This family-friendly performance features evocatively-sung Irish ballads, lively instrumental tunes and thrilling Irish dancing, while evocative photographic images provide a backdrop to some of the rich historical traditions. Take a memorable glimpse into the enchanting spirit of Christmas, as the finest traditional artists from Ireland bring you on a fun-filled start to the holiday season of 2014.
Mac Diarmada enthuses about the program as a way to bring traditional and often unknown Irish customs to the States. "One of the most heartfelt themes of Irish Christmas is emigration," says Mac Diarmada. "Music was a way that people stayed close to home."
A sparkling tradition among holiday events, Irish Christmas in America is a special show to see this season.
Online ticket sales end at 11:00 pm on December 13. Door tickets are $30.
All sales are final. Refunds are given ONLY in the event of cancellation by performers.
