Under the direction of famed Irish composer and producer Frank McNamara, who will accompany the trio on the Steinway, the show is one of the most exciting pops shows available. It promises to entertain with favorites ranging from "West Side Story" to "Shenandoah" and from "O Sole Mio" to "Climb Every Mountain". What a season opener! ************************** RHYTHM OF THE DANCE Oct. 19-20-21-22 2010***** Feel The Beat Of The Bodhran, Tap Your Feet, Dance In The Isles! This is a truly spectacular Irish Dance show that is an inspiring epic reliving the journey of two Celtic clans as they battle their way to freedom. It illuminates the influence that the Irish Celts had and still have on Irish society. By combining traditional and contemporary Irish dance, music and song with the latest stage technology, this richly costumed show performed by THE NATIONAL DANCE COMPANY OF IRELAND, married the contemporary with the ancient. It is truly a celebration of all things Irish. ************************* FOREVER PLAID Nov. 9-10-11-12, 2010****** Forever Plaid is an affectionate musical homage to the close-harmony "guy groups" that reached the height of their popularity during the 1950's. The quartet of high-school chums, and their earnest dreams of recording an album, ended in death, when their '54 Mercury collided with a bus filled with Catholic school girls on their way to see the Beatles' American debut on the Ed Sullivan show. The play begins with the Plaids returning from the afterlife for one final chance at musical glory. ************************* HARLEM GOSPEL CHOIR Feb. 22-23-24-25, 2011***** This choir is the most famous gospel choir in America today. It travels the globe sharing its joy of faith and its message of love and inspiration through its music. Through its dynamic performances, the Choir strives to create a beter understanding of the African-American culture and the inspirational music called Gospel. Their songs of hope and inspiration will touch the depths of your soul and lift your spirit to angelic heights. The theme of every performance is "bringing people and nations together and giving something back". Their repertoire including "I Believe I Can Fly", "O Happy Day", "Joyful, Joyful" and "Man From Galilee" will rock the house. ************************ PRESERVATION HALL JAZZ BAND Mar. 22-23-24-25, 2011***** Preservation Hall Jazz Band derives its name from Preversation Hall, the venerable music venue located in the heart of New Orleans' French Quarter. The band has traveled worldwide spreading their mission to nurture and perpetuate the art form of New Orleans jazz. Whether performing at Carnegie Hall or for British Royalty, this music embodies a joyful, timeless spirit. Under the auspices of current director Ben Jaffe, Preservation Hall continues with a deep reverence and consciousness of its greatest attributes in the modern day as a venue, band and record label. What a wonderful way to complete our season!
