Danceroom Recital – Shine On
May 3, 2009
The annual spring recital – entitled Shine On for 2009 – consists of dances practiced in class throughout the dance season by all dance levels. We have performed at community centers, yearly fundraisers, and theatres and are planning on entering into the competitive scene in the near future.
The Danceroom has been in business since 2004. Starting out as a small business with only a few students, we have watched our population triple in numbers each year as we continue growing into a busy studio of over 100 students. Our dance season runs from fall to spring, just in time for our yearly recital which is always filled with a variety of fantastic performances, interesting costumes, and an array of excited, talented dancers.

Irish Fire – A dancing story of love and desire
May 23, 2009
As the house lights dim and the music swells, the audience is certain of one thing – this is not a typical dance performance. The 85 minute spectacle challenges all stereotypes associated with Irish dance. Far from traditional, Irish Fire is a show that can easily be compared to such contemporary hits as Riverdance and Lord of the Dance. Created by Devin Cornell, Irish Fire was choreographed by both Devin and the dancers of Celtic Fury. The show features not only the talent of Celtic Fury, but also the breathtaking vocal talent of Meghan Kilbride. The gentle grace of the soft shoe, the heart-pounding percussion of the hard shoe and the haunting vocal performances come together in a perfect blend of theatrical beauty. The result is a stunning work of art that lives forever in the memories of all those who experience it.
