The 19th Annual Dance Recital was held yesterday in St. Anselms Hall in the Parkwood section of Philadelphia. There were jigs and reels in gillies and hard-shoe performed by dancers from 2 year olds to adults. It doesn’t get any cutier than watching the wee ones doing the Unicorn song complete with a Unicorn. The audience loved it. Many of the older dancers started as little ones themselves and are always helping with the beginners. Next year will be very special celebrating their 20th.Don’t miss the Philadelphia Fleadh celebrating their 10th year coming up Saturday May 13th, 12pm to 8pm at Nick’s Roast Beef Woodhaven featuring 13 Celtic Rock bands,Trad Sessions,Celtic Flame’s Feis at the Fleadh, Kid’s Zone, vendors and much much more. www.PhillyIrishFest.com
