This Is Ireland

Are you homesick for Ireland?  Or perhaps just always wanted to visit?  On St. Patrick's Day, everyone is Irish, so this March 17th, let us take you there...

Come, come with us...  As we soar across the sea, let the music transport you and let our stories and our poetry whisper, "THIS IS IRELAND."

We will give you a little bit of home, a sip of the old country, and a taste of the new, in this magical evening filled with music and song, prose and poetry, romance and politics.  We offer you the pride of our heritage, the richness of our culture, and the sparkle of our humor.

Come, come with us...  And we will give you a taste of ancient Hibernia, with a healthy helping of modern Ireland too.  Let us take you there with our Irish spirit...

The past and the present, together in one event:  "THIS IS IRELAND"

The show will feature Irish music ranging from traditional Irish folk songs, to the scores ofJohn Williams, to the music of Irish rock stars such as Thin Lizzy and U2 - all presented with orchestra, chorus and a core rock ensemble.

Hosted by conductor and composer Eimear Noone, a Galway native, and featuring a Hollywood orchestra, the evening weaves words with music and film, and you will be transported across the sea to Ireland.

Our evening boasts a variety of musicians, singers and actors, a personal greeting to our guests from Irish President Mary McAleese and features special performances by Irish actors Roma Downey and Pierce Brosnan.

So put on your best Emerald Green and come home.  Join LA's Irish expatriate community, and our American Irish, for a truly authentic St. Patrick's Day event.

Because on St. Patrick's Day..everyone is Irish!
