Rockin Road to Dublin
Rockin Road to Dublin

Following sell-out shows in the Northeast, Rockin’ Road to Dublin is coming to (CITY) on their 2018 national tour!  Rockin’ Road To Dublin is the new sensation that combines the art of an Irish dance show, the power of a rock concert, all with the finish of a Broadway theatrical production. Starring World Champion Irish dancers Scott Doherty and Ashley Smith, Rockin’ Road to Dublin is a must-see spectacle that Irish Dancing Magazine calls “World-Class.”

 

Here’s what people are saying about Rockin’ Road to Dublin:

“Unique, upbeat, and I love the combination of traditional Gaelic music with rock music and the dancing was extraordinary.” -Anne. B., Green Bay

 

“An incredible dance troupe, a phenomenal musical ensemble, killer staging, and lighting. BRAVO!”

-Ellis K. Davenport
