The professional Irish Dance Troupe performs at corporate events, weddings, parties, festivals, concerts, and showcases mostly in the New York area. They completed a highly successful tour of Japan with the Irish folk band ‘The Suffering Gaels’ in 2001, performing 26 shows in large venues such as Osaka Festival Hall. They have also performed with the Afro-Irish band 'De Jimbe' at the Rhinebeck Center for Performing Arts and Pier 63 in New York City.
The Troupe has appeared in concert at The Union Square ‘Summer in the Square’ concert series in Manhattan every summer since 2001. They have also headlined The Rockland ‘Worldfest’ International Dance Festival and been regularly featured in the annual New York City Irish Dance Festival. In December 2001 and March 2002, the Troupe toured America with 'The Three Irish Tenors'. The Irish Dance Troupe has also performed at the Gala St. Patrick’s Day Ball at The Plaza Hotel in New York, the American-Ireland Fund dinner, Eileen Ivers Show, Pfizer Pharmaceutical’s Corporate Show, Prudential Corporate Show and 'Shadfest' on the Hudson River.
The dancers in the Troupe come from around the world but now all live in the New York area. Together, they blend their influences and experiences to create an exciting Irish Dance Show, combining traditional styles with new choreography.
