PBS just broadcasted the 25th anniversary production of Riverdance on TV. Watched it and loved it all over again...I just really love everything about it. It's not quite the same without the original cast, but good lord they are fantastic!
It moves me to the point of tears, I can't help it, it's just so powerful.
Not sobbing and snotting all over tears, but a few drops here and there....
Anyone else love Riverdance? What other stage performances move you?

I do love Riverdance. And Celtic Thunder. And all other forms of live theater, lol. I'm not too picky! My favorite Broadway-style musical is Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

When I first met my husband (1997) I had a dress similar to what they wear in Riverdance. So similar that my husband used to call it my "riverdance" dress.

I saw Lord of the Dance live and I thought it was well worth the price of the ticket.
