Presented by the Modlin Center.

An Irish-American Experience through music, dance and film.

“Eileen is to Irish music as Michael Flatley is to Irish dance—a pioneer, an innovator, a universalist….” – Pulitzer Prize-winning author Frank McCourt

Paying homage to the rich and tireless passage of the native Irish people from Ireland to Canada and the United States, Eileen Ivers has created “Beyond the Bog Road,” an all-star assemblage of Irish and traditional musicians, singers, step dancers and cloggers/tap dancers.

Told through music, story, dance and featuring an exquisite video, this multimedia performance is a celebration of the Irish immigrant’s impact on America and America’s impact on the Irish immigrant. This is Eileen Ivers at her most heartfelt—a seminal work and a slice of Irish-American musical history underscored by Ivers’ abiding passion and timeless grace.
