RIVERDANCE National Tours Plays Farewell Engagement in Austin, 12/8

By: Oct. 15, 2009

Riverdance, the thunderous celebration of Irish music, song and dance that has tapped its way onto the world stage thrilling millions of people around the globe, will play 8 farewell performances in Austin at Bass Concert Hall from December 8-13.  

Of all the performances to emerge from Ireland in the past decade - in rock, music, theatre and film - nothing has carried the energy, the sensuality and the spectacle of Riverdance. Riverdance's success has spawned three separate touring companies: The Boyne, which tours USA and Canada, the Foyle, who perform in Dublin, and the Corrib cast which tours Europe. Riverdance’s North American touring company, the Boyne, will be stopping in Austin.  Leads include Craig Ashurst, Marty Dowds, Padraic Moyles, Melissa Convery, Caterina Coyne, and Alana Mallon.

Tickets range in price from $23-$61 and can be purchased by clicking here.
