A Celtic Christmas

Pealer Recital Hall | FSU Woodward D. Pealer Performing Arts Center
A Spirited Celebration of Celtic Music, Dance and Storytelling
In a return to Frostburg after sold-out performances in 2008 and 2011, A Celtic Christmas invites us to enter another world and another era for a joy-filled holiday celebration.
In a remote cottage in the west of Ireland, the exultation and innocence of a night before Christmas prevail as neighbors gather for an evening of celebration. There, the rafters ring with fiery traditional music and Irish Christmas carols, the quicksilver footwork of traditional dancers reverberates on the flagstone floor and the magic of storytelling brings delight to all.
Led by acclaimed Irish storyteller Tomáseen Foley, A Celtic Christmas features Grammy Award-winning guitarist William Coulter, All-Ireland champion singer and fiddle player Eimear Arkins, champion Irish dancer Marcus Donnelly and uilleann piper Brian Bigley.
