Byrne's heart beating in London tonight!

‘Heartbeat of Home’, featuring the work of Navan composer Brian Byrne, opens in the Piccadilly Theatre in London’s West End.

Byrne worked on the project with Moya Doherty and John McColgan of Riverdance fame. Heartbeat of Home is described as a spine-tingling, tantalizing, high octane, sexy, dance and music extravaganza. It is a heart–stopping tour de force that features the dynamic, vibrant components of traditional Irish, Latin, Hip-Hop, Afro-Cuban and contemporary music and dance, uniting performers and audiences on journeys to find a home, wherever that may be.
Following sold out performances at the London Palladium earlier this year and having thrilled audiences in Dublin, North America, China and Germany, the show is heading to the Piccadilly Theatre for an extended West End run due to popular demand. 

Heartbeat of Home showcases 33 world-class dancers and live musicians from Ireland, USA, Australia, Britain, Canada, Italy, Argentina and Spain. Produced by Moya Doherty, conceived and directed by John McColgan with Byrne, concept development and lyrics by award-winning Irish writer Joseph O’Connor and choreography by David Bolger. 
The Heartbeat of Home creative team includes John Carey (Irish dance choreography), Alan Farquharson (set design), David Torpey/Image Now and David Mattias/COSMO (set projection), Peter Canning (lighting), Ciarán Byrne (sound), Monica Ennis and Niamh O’Connor (costumes styling) and Padraic Moyles (associate director). Ashbourne dancer Ellen Bonner will also take part.
