Change the Game




I can hear the world Of Irish dance screaming with delight at this. We've had Riverdance, we've had Lord of the dance, we've changed the perception of Irish dance...and now We have a new breath of fresh air. The genius behind this piece of work is Alan Kenefick, a lead role in Riverdance.

This piece of work said a few things to me when I first watched it. Firstly, Irish dance is going to survive when Riverdance sees it's final day. As sad as that day will be, it will now be an exciting one as the world has seen that Irish Dance is going to take a new journey and amaze us once again. Secondly, Irish Dance is still clearly one of the most, if not the most, physically and technically difficult forms of dance to master and it takes a real dedication and passion to the dance to portary that onstage.

I have my fingers and toes crossed that Prodijig will go on to win this season of Got To Dance, but I'm confident that no matter what the outcome, these seven dancers are about to change the world of dance as we know it and change the game for us Irish Dancers!
