Shaylyn The Show

A two hour production Shaylyn tells the story of Irish Dance through the ages with the best of traditional Irish dancers, singers and musicians. Demonstrating how the events of history have impacted on and shaped our music, song and dance and our own changing attitudes to these traditions, Shaylyn is also a tribute to our ancestors who struggled and fought to keep the culture alive.

The show attempts to illustrate the continuing evolution of Irish Dance in particular, from earliest beginnings in ancient Ireland to the position it holds today.

Shaylyn displays all that is traditionally associated with Irish Dance, rhythm, speed, discipline, rigidity and restraint with more modern as well as ancient influences. It demonstrates the links between the three through history, the ever changing influence of the modern, the traditional foundations of history and the romantic legacy of the ancient.

You must see this exhilarating two hour show from the most rural heart of Ireland, dances set to soul stirring music, songs that illustrate the changing moods of times past and a story to make you proud!

Give Shaylyn two hours and they will give you 4000 years of music, song and dance in Ireland!
