Cristela Alonzo Portland reviews
Classic dance
A frenzied drummer with remarkable skill, classic Irish tap, and inspiring classic Irish music and Instruments were featured in this performance. The audience's feet were instinctively tapping along to the rhythms. The implementation of entwining flamenco and traditional Irish high pure soprano was brilliant. Additionally, including a very accomplished flamenco dancer was a wise move. Another stroke of brilliance was incorporating New York street tap dancers, along with a tap dancer with a magnificent voice. The deep feeling for both old Irish and modern traditions was evident throughout the show. We, inveterate theatre goers with 60 years of experience in dance, musical comedy, Opera, and ballet viewing in Honolulu, NYC, London, Paris, Tokyo, Sydney, and Bangkok, found this to be the best dance performance we have ever seen. This was one of the best musical presentations to our liking. We were so impressed that we would have gladly attended the following night as well.
