In commemoration of its 10th Anniversary Season, Darrah Carr Dance brings ModERIN, its signature blend of traditional Irish step and contemporary modern dance, to the Irish Arts Center stage. Renowned for seamlessly integrating Irish dance within contemporary choreography, the company blends Irish music, step dance footwork, and spatial patterns to create high energy, rhythmically based work that is performed by a cast of champion Irish step dancers. Featuring a mix of new works and company favorites, additional program highlights include salon style discussions with choreographer Darrah Carr, a specially priced Family Show (1 hour), and a ModERIN Masterclass.
