Deiseil: Dancing in Time with Fèis Spè

Deiseil: Dancing in Time is an immersive, compelling journey across centuries of tradition, told through fiddle, feet, Gaelic song and storytelling. The show powerfully explores how stepdance was forgotten in Scotland and kept alive in Cape Breton, and the lifelong friendship woven into its revival here.

Groundbreaking new work from award-winning director Gerry Mulgrew, and Deiseil Airson Dannsa founders, dancer Alison Carlyle and musician Amy Geddes.

Deiseil means “ready” in Scottish Gaelic: be ready for a mesmerising reflection on issues of culture, identity and connection.

“The most joyful show… tells an important story with the lightest of touches and doesn’t put a foot wrong.” 5 stars, The Scotsman

Support from Monadh Ruadh, the Fèis Spè senior band.
