Armstrong Theatre at Torrance Cultural Arts Center (Torrance, CA)

People familiar with Irish stepdancing can be forgiven for thinking that this highly choreographed, competition-oriented style is Ireland’s only form of dance. However, there is an older, wilder, more freewheeling form called sean-nós (literally, “old style”). Atlantic Steps, a touring stage show, introduces the world to sean-nós via the unbridled enthusiasm of Brian Cunningham, its headlining performer and one of the most innovative “old style” dancers of his generation. An adaptation of a hit production in Ireland, Atlantic Steps revels in the music, song, dance and energy of the Connemara region, the country’s Gaelic-speaking heartland. Experience the thrill and camaraderie of an Irish céilí (“party”) with Atlantic Steps, a show that celebrates the richness of an ancient culture.
