Description

Since 1998, the Bessie Award nominated company Darrah Carr has brought a bold new twist to conventional Irish Dance. Artistic Director Darrah Carr has also created a sensational and unique blend of traditional Irish step and contemporary modern dance she calls ModERIN: a playful combination of the words modern (dance) and ERIN (an Irish American reference to Ireland). This mixed repertoire program of traditional Irish music and dance include featured cast members Billy Elliot star Trent Kowalik and longtime Riverdance cast member Timothy Kochka. The programs have a live music component and feature champion Irish step dancers who have garnered awards at numerous competitions on both the national and international circuit.
