Ballinlough Castle welcomes Body & Soul solstice gathering this June
Shannon Dance Academy presents An Evening of Dance, on Saturday March 27 at 8pm and Sunday March 28 at 3pm at the Dean Crowe Theatre, Athlone.
This delightful production features two specially created ballets, An Enchanted Toyshop and La Vie Parisienne. In the first piece, an enchanted fairy magically awakens some of our favourite toys and we are treated to graceful Angelina Ballerina and her Mouseling friends, High School Musical cheerleaders, twirling teddies, sparring chess pieces, and dancing dollies. The second act opens by transporting the audience to the ambience of a bustling Parisian street café with French maids, posh ladies, street artists, and balloon sellers. As evening approaches we enter the famous Parisian cabaret scene with can-can dancers, 1920s flappers, and the mesmerising music of Edith Piaf and Charles Aznavour.
