Co-produced  by Ceol Connected and Fidget Feet

A new aerial dance & traditional music production for young audiences

Suitable for children ages 6+ and their adults

Come on an imaginative journey where aerial dancers dance like the waves of the sea, where a fiddler soars high, and where cloths made from the night and light and half-light suspend, float and fall.  And let’s not forget the very mysterious antique lady of the river whose feathers explore what lies behind the moon once it spins round!

When the Moon Spun Round is an exciting new production that brings together the synergy of Ceol Connected and Fidget Feet in an impactful work.  The coming together of artists and performers from the worlds of aerial dance and traditional arts has resulted in a unique experience that is sure to leave audiences of all ages enthralled.
