Virginia-born Morgan Bullock, who says she's been mesmerized by the dance style since she first saw it at age 10, will be making her professional U.S. stage debut in the production.
“Besides the talent that she is, her personality and what she stands for as a human is what we’re all about," says Padraic Moyles, the show’s executive producer and director. "That is one of the major reasons why we felt it’s time for Morgan to be in the show.”
The two-hour “Riverdance” show is loosely based on the story of Irish culture and mass immigration to America, the story woven through music and dance styles including flamenco and tap. Most of the dancing is drawn from traditional Irish step dancing, in which the arms and body move little while the feet create the sound and action.
“If you’re good enough, if you have an open mind to try something and work hard at it, then we in Riverdance will welcome you with open arms,” he says.
