An Grianán are delighted to welcome Luail, Ireland’s new national dance company, to Letterkenny for the first time.
Luail – Ireland’s National Dance Company presents:
Dancehall by Emma Martin, with music by Andrew Hamilton
performed by Crash Ensemble
A decade after its original creation, Emma Martin and Andrew Hamilton’s celebratory Dancehall returns – bolder and more alive than ever, reimagined for Luail’s company of dancers.
Drawn from the shadows of Ireland’s Public Dance Halls Act, this exhilarating work revels in the powerful simplicity and raw humanity of the dancehall, a space where freedom, resistance and individuality unapologetically meet in messy, sweaty, chaotic joy.
Dancehall is an unrestrained tribute to what it means to be alive—together, egos smashed up, in the moment.
“A stunning achievement.” EXAMINER.COM
Luail was established in 2024 with funding from Arts Council/An Chomhairle Ealaíon with a remit to embody, embed and empower dance across the island of Ireland, and to lead into a future that transforms how we make, know and experience it.
