With a world-class ensemble of musicians, dancers and singers from both sides of the Atlantic, Tomáseen Foley's A Celtic Christmas has played to packed concert halls and to critical acclaim nationwide, recreating on stage the now-famous Rambling House: that remote cottage in the West of Ireland where the neighbors gather every year for a communal night before Christmas. There, the rafters ring with fiery traditional music, Irish Christmas carols, riveting traditional dance, and (of course) stories of life in the remote parish of Teampall an Ghleanntáin, Tomáseen's birthplace. The show invites its audience to come into that cottage, into that world, into that era with us, and be our neighbors for the night.
"If you can't cross the Atlantic, at least make your way to A Celtic Christmas." - Cleveland Plain Dealer
"A Celtic Christmas received a standing ovation at the end. Some people may have been standing to reach for a tissue … it was heart tugging … Foley runs pictures and thoughts across the mind like shooting stars on a crystalline night, with emotions shaking the ground." - Green Bay Press Gazette
"… fashion an imagined moment in time co-existing peacefully with the spirit of Christmas, recreating the innocence and charm of times gone by ..." - The State Journal-Register, Springfield, IL
