I brought the family to Riverdance with great expectations of dance & music costing €170. The dancing was good although towards the end I was a bit tired of the clickity-clack. The girl performing the Spanish dance routines was excellent, its a pity the producers couldn't cough up a 'Live' Spanish guitarist instead of the canned version. Speaking of Live musicians, the percussionist and violinist were outstanding, as was the tenor saxophonist but he wasn't exactly "live", I think he needed a prod or two to move him! The most disappointing aspect was the canned music, what a shame. It was awful. I'm sure there are musicians out there looking for work. Maybe the producers can't afford it. For those who have seen the original Riverdance in the Point, this production is a major let down. For first timers I'm sure they will enjoy it. The audience last night gave it a standing ovation. P.S. When did Theatres start allowing alcohol to be consumed during performances?
