Irish Dances in Rome

In short:


Q: What's the "La Festa della Contea"?
A: It's an event dedicated to the world of "The Lord of the Ring" books, to its creator J.R.R. Tolkien and to the world of "Fantasy" in general.


Q: I see.. but what will be there?
A: Music and Dance (Irish Dance!), Medieval Rievocation and events, Role Playing Games, Local Gastronomy...


Q: You were speaking about Irish Dance... what will I see?
A: During the 3 days of the "Festa" there will be a "delegation" of Gens d'Ys Academy of Irish Dance (Rome branch) so it will be possible to watch Irish Dance exhibitions (featuring our teachers Martina and Corrado and our "Show Team") and you will be involved in first person!
Our Teachers will teach you how to dance a few easy dances and we'll dance all together!

Just for instance an incomplete list of the guests of the past editions:

• The Shire (see also: Luca Verzulli's website) (Irish Music),
• Gens d'Ys (Irish Dance to watch and to dance),
• Lingalad (medieval and fantasy music),
• Tùatha Dé Dannan (celtical and medieval music),
• The Green Clouds (see also: their Myspace) (all-feminine band - Electronic and Symphonic Irish Music),
• Fabula Mirabilis (medieval music),
• Coro Ethos (medieval and rinascimental music)...

So... if you are nearby, see you there!
