CHILDREN
OF LIR & MOVIE MAGIC
This unique double bill presented by the students of
Corrib Dance Academy begins with the well-known Irish legend ‘The Children of
Lir’. One of Ireland’s oldest tales, retold through classical ballet, is
performed to a score of orchestrated Irish and Classical music. A highlight of
Act 1 is the scene from ‘Swan Lake’, adapted for our CDA senior students from
original choreography.
Inspired by a medley of popular films, Act 2 features
scenes from Trolls and Mary Poppins, the Greatest Showman and La La Land, plus
many more. Modern Theatre and Jazz Dance styles are featured in this entertaining
and fast-moving tribute to the silver screen.
