Riverdance returned to Boston last night with a thunderous standing ovation, and it’s easy to see why. The opening night performance at the Boch Center Wang Theatre delivered everything longtime fans love—and more. Celebrating 30 years of groundbreaking Irish dance, this limited engagement is a masterclass in rhythm, power, and precision.

From the first heartbeat of the bodhrán to the final soaring note, the show blends tradition and innovation with dazzling effect. Lead dancers captivated the audience with their electrifying footwork and commanding stage presence, backed by a phenomenal cast from around the world. Every number was met with thunderous applause, especially the iconic synchronized tap sequences that practically shook the walls of the historic theatre.

The musical ensemble is just as thrilling, featuring virtuoso performances on the fiddle, uilleann pipes, saxophone, and percussion. The fusion of Irish, flamenco, Russian, and American tap styles highlights the global language of dance in a way that feels both fresh and timeless.

This 30th Anniversary production feels like a celebration—of culture, of connection, and of the sheer joy of live performance. Whether you’re a lifelong fan or new to the phenomenon, Riverdance is an unforgettable experience that will leave you breathless.

Don’t miss your chance to catch this limited run in Boston. The show runs through Sunday, April 14 at the Boch Center Wang Theatre. Tickets are selling fast—visit bochcenter.org to reserve your seats now.

The Boston Irish Reporter is now BostonIrish.com!

We’re thrilled to invite you with us on this new venture, one that is 30 years in the making. This exciting new change will allow us to bring you new and current content on a more regular basis and will optimize our sponsor’s online marketing.

In the coming months, the website will become the primary vehicle for publishing our work. The print edition of the Boston Irish will continue, but in a seasonal form.

It will no longer be a monthly publication. The inaugural edition — with a new look— will debut in March 2020.

This transition is an exciting one for our news organization, which continues to draw talented and dynamic reporters and editors to our newsroom. We’re committed to continuing to tell our stories— and to enhance what we do with new platforms.
