Not content to sleep in on Saturday morning after a blockbuster first week run at Boston's Boch Center/Wang Theater, members of the cast of Riverdance took a trip to the Irish Culture Centre in Canton to give young students a masterclass that proved to be both thrilling and educational.
BostonIrish.com readers Cindy and Ron Harrington were the lucky winners of a BostonIrish Giveaway to the 25th Anniversary engagement of Riverdance. The performance took place Tuesday, May 10 at Boston's Boch Center Wang Theater.
Having been delayed for 2 years due the pandemic, this tour of Riverdance was highly anticipated, thrilling the audience with a two-hour spectacular of Irish music and dancing.
