Amazing work!

5/5

I am absolutely blown away by how beautiful this show was. The dances were unique and primal, and the music was exciting yet thought-provoking. As an opera enthusiast, I had been galvanized by the marvellous, sonorous voice of that young lady.   The illusions themselves were cryptic; the performance of sibylline tricks—and treats! I was utterly entranced by the clicking of their tap shoes, as the sound itself can only come from pure savvy and years of experience.   Thank you, Celtic Illusion. I couldn’t be more pleased.

Fantastic Show

I thoroughly enjoyed the show. The dancing magnificent and very well rehearsed. Singing was beautiful and the illusions were good. The musicians were very entertaining. I loved the different outfits the dancers wore. Very colourful. I could not stop my feet from moving the entire time. I would definitely go again if they were to return to Ottawa.

This was the most amateur show I have ever seen. Some sound issues with the instrument solos. Were the 'Tapping' sounds actually recorded? They were definitely off the foot moves. The singer sounded like she was at a karaoke bar and just not necessary to make the show better. I could tell at least 2 of the illusions didn't work out like planned, and at one point 2 of the dancers ran into each other. I hope this was a really off night for the crew of Celtic Illusion, because at $80 plus dollars a ticket I was less then impressed.

Looked unpracticed

It almost seemed like a vibe there was conflict within the staff. It seemed like it was choppy and didn’t flow. Some of the sound didn’t work for the instruments properly and some of the illusions failed. At one point the main character said shit under his breath but in second row could be heard when an illusion failed. The dancing was Amazing!! I would go just for that alone. At the price point tho I think I would overlook going again.

CELTIC ILLUSION

The show was entertaining enough. The illusions magnificent. The singing could have be left out, or minimised to 2 songs .Replaced with more illusions. I am a Hugh fan of anything Celtic and attend with my family every event that comes to Calgary. To make this show great I feel they would have to add more dancers to there show. The dancers were great.

Disappointment

Music quality is poor... Singer's words can't be heard. Too few dancers. Sets, lighting both weak. Illusions standard. You have to really like Irish dancing to make it withheld.
