Festival style Irish dance is a form associated with Northern Ireland that is distinct from the “feis” style step dancing that emerged in the mid-twentieth century. The style was pioneered by Patricia Mulholland\, a fiddler and dancer\, who created a “folk ballet” in the 1930-1950s to appeal to both Catholics and Protestants in the Belfast area. Influenced by Scottish and Irish step dancing\, festival style is known for its slow\, elegant\, and controlled slip jigs and set dances. Creating “light and shade” in one’s dancing is an important aspect of the style\, with graceful leg lifts\, swoops\, and spins. \nDrawing on her studies with Ruth Long and Lauren Smyth in the festival style tradition\, Kate and her student Maggie Hensler-McGinnis will present a showcase of traditional and modern soft shoe and hard shoe dances in this style.

The New Yorker notes that the group’s “dancers\, whose bodies also provide percussion\, are in a constant give-and-take with musicians on piano\, sax and bass. The feeling is that of being at a family reunion\, in which every family member has something to say.” \nLed by Brazilian choreographer Leonardo Sandoval and composer Gregory Richardson\, Music from the Sole’s work embraces tap’s unique nature as a blend of sound and movement\, incorporating wide-ranging influences like samba\, passinho\, Afro-Cuban\, jazz and house.

Festival style Irish dance is from the Belfast area of Northern Ireland and was developed by Patricia Mulholland (or “Miss Mulholland”) in the 1950s to draw the focus of Irish dance away from the “pageantry” of feis style and more towards individual expression. The costumes are simpler and dancers do not wear wigs. Festival slip jigs and set dances are much slower than their feis style counterparts\, and dancers pay particular attention to expressing “light and shade” in the music. Grace\, elegance\, and control are key features of Festival style\, and one of its distinctive motifs is the “burl” or turn/spin. \nDIDA Tappy Hour is designed with community in mind. This event is open to everyone\, including dancers from any Irish dance school or style. Footwear: Soft shoes\, socks\, or light/non-stick sneakers. \nHere is a video of Kate performing a festival slip jig at the Maryland Irish Festival in November 2022: URL:https://www.educarteinc.org/event/festival-style-irish-dance-workshop-by-kate-spanos-2/ LOCATION:District Irish Dance Academy\, 4435 Wisconsin Avenue NW\, Suite LL10\, Washington\, DC\, 20016\, United States CATEGORIES:Community Events,Workshops & Classes ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.educarteinc.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Kate-Spanos-Festival-style-at-DIDA-2022-1.jpeg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
