Dance spectacular is not ‘Riverdance 2’, claim producers

Hurley-wielding dancers feature in the latest music and dance spectacular by the producers of Riverdance called Heartbeat of Home.

The show, produced by Moya Doherty and conceived and directed by John McColgan, is being staged at the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre in Dublin for a limited run.

The fusion of traditional Irish, Latin, and Afro-Cuban music and dance is presented in two parts with music by Brian Byrne and lyrics and narrative by novelist, Joseph O’Connor.
