Celtic Fire,
starring renowned Irish tenor Michael Londra, presents the culture of Ireland, with a focus on Irish dance. Its electric energy sweeps audiences away to the Emerald Isle - its culture, its music, its pubs, its heart.
World-class Irish dancers take the stage with brilliant flashes of speed and exuberance. The jigs and reels they perform with precision are a joy to watch. The innovative choreography is original to the show, presenting an exciting style of Irish dance that perfectly complements the live band. Intricate group numbers and looser solo spots are the hit of each performance. Many want to join in… and younger audience members usually do!
The music of Celtic Fire is traditional at its core, with all of Ireland’s national instruments included: the fiddle driving frenetic reels; our great drum, the bodhran, beating out the driving rhythms of the band; the plaintive uileann pipes calling back to days of yore with beautiful and haunting slow airs.
Fifth Harmony make their way to the Rodeo this weekend, an all-female contemporary R&B vocal group formed in 2012 while competing on the second season of Fox's The X Factor.
Featured in Fifth Harmony are vocalists Camila Cabello, Normani Kordei Hamilton, Lauren Jauregui, Allyson Brooke Hernandez, and Dinah Jane Hansen. Originally, the members of the band entered The X 
Factor competition individually as solo artists and were then placed together by judge Simon Cowell to compete in the "groups" category. Ultimately, Fifth Harmony finished in third place behind Carly Rose Sonenclar and first-place winner Tate Stevens. After The X Factor, Fifth Harmony signed to Epic Records in the U.S. and Cowell's Syco Records in Britain. The group's initial EPs, Better Together and the Spanish-language Juntos, appeared in 2013.
