After premiering Off-Broadway last season, A Taste of Ireland – The Irish Music & Dance Sensation returns to stages across the U.S. in 2025, performing the show that has entertained thousands around the globe. Laugh, cry, and jig into the night with a production that is Celtic for this generation.
Performed by former World Irish dance champions and featuring dancers from Lord of the Dance and Riverdance, A Taste of Ireland transports the audience through the story of Ireland’s tumultuous history — delivered with a pint of Irish wit. Watch world-class performers blend melodic folk mashups, live jaw-dropping a cappella tap battles, and heartwarming storytelling.
Featuring revamped classics like “Danny Boy,” “Tell Me Ma,” “Wild Rover,” and many more beloved songs, the show’s reimagined contemporary score blossoms alongside the brash Irish charm of the live dance cast. A Taste of Ireland merges cultural traditions, modern flair, and craic galore to deliver a performance that has been leaving audiences across the globe jigging on their feet for the last decade.
