Every Little Step…the Rhythm of Hope  
is a stunning performance about Hope.  Through personal stories, dance and above all, Rhythm, a powerful cast of seven performers combine African-American Stepping, modern and Irish dance and stories in a positively uplifting show that spreads a smile and makes you feel powerful.  Critically acclaimed in its New York premier and recently toured to standing ovations throughout Ireland, this is a riveting, foot-stomping, body-clapping, energising experience for families and audiences of all ages. 

With primal rhythm and personal stories the performance gives us a way (and a time) to feel our connection with each other, and in doing so, the power within ourselves.  This engaging performance offers a refreshing perspective on perseverance and connects us with the roots of cultural expression. Dance Theatre of Ireland and New York based Soul Steps have extensive educational outreach experience.  Workshops in full-body percussion, suitable for all ages and experience, are available with this production.
