Atlantic Steps is the inspiring epic story of Ireland’s oldest dance form (sean-nƒ³s), portrayed through the music, song, dance and Atlantic-Ocean-inspired energy of the Connemara region.
Atlantic Steps is an international-touring adaptation of the phenomenally successful Irish show Fuaim Chonamara. It tells the inspiring epic story of Irelands oldest dance form, portrayed through the music, song, dance and energy of the Connemara region. Centered around the joyful dance and unbridled enthusiasm of Brian Cunningham, the show continues to move festival and theatre audiences to their feet, bringing sean-nƒ³s dance to its rightful place on the world stage.
Following a highly successful summer 2012 first-outing for the show at Dublin Irish Festival OH, Irishfest La Crosse WI and Irish Fair of Minnesota, the show is being rolled out for extensive touring throughout the US during 2013 and 2014.
