The Irish vocal group Celtic Thunder has a Nov. 23 concert date at The Palace Theatre in Greensburg.
Promoter presale begins at 10 a.m. April 1 with the passcode “PALACE” via eventbrite.com. Tickets go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. April 3 at thepalacetheatre.org.
Show time is 7:30 p.m., with doors open at 6:30. Tickets are $49-$75.
The group grew out of a 2007 show filmed by producer Sharon Browne filmed in Dublin, Ireland. The concept was to feature a group of men from Ireland and Scotland, ages 14 to 40, singing songs celebrating a common Celtic heritage.
The show included an eclectic mix of songs ranging from the traditional to international hits and some original pieces, according to a release.
The current cast of Celtic Thunder includes Ryan Kelly, Neil Byrne, Emmet Cahill, Michael O’Dwyer and Damian McGinty.
The first Celtic Thunder CD/DVD, called “The Show,” was released in March 2008 and a full U.S. and Canada tour followed that fall. The group’s 2010 release, “It’s Entertainment,” paid homage to American pop culture.
Celtic Thunder’s highly choreographed live shows are known for the use of visual effects and dramatic set pieces, often invoking symbols of ancient Celtic mythology.
