February 15, 2013-- Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day, Staller Center for the Arts at Stony Brook University brings Celtic Nights to its Main Stage on Saturday, March 16 at 8:00 pm.

Celtic Nights is a celebration of song that weaves together the lilting melodies and plaintive lyrics of the rich Celtic heritage to tell the story of a people. In this stirring tale of the Celtic experience, the audience is invited to travel along on a journey of hope, transported in time through traditional ballads, vivid choreography and the story of a people struggling to find their place in a changing world. 

Celtic Nights, from the creators of Gaelforce Dance, features both the finest male and the finest female voices of the Celtic world showcased against a thundering backdrop of expert dancing and musicianship. In this glittering production, six of Ireland’s most prominent vocal talents are complimented by six of its most accomplished step dancers, creating an exhilarating picture of a proud people who dared to dream big and doggedly carved out a home in the New World. In Celtic Nights, their story is told, through music and dancing feet.

Tickets are $38. Call (631) 632-ARTS [2787] or buy tickets on line at www.stallercenter.com.
