49 Thoughts We All Had While Watching Riverdance

katedemolder

Riverdance has been going on all summer in the Gaiety Theatre, Dublin – and it’s truly set a fire under the belly of anyone who’s seen it. 

We went to see it and it only went and BLEW OUR MINDS. Money well spent, this is the perfect showcase for anyone who’s into happiness, fun and leppin’ around. 

However, we wouldn’t necessarily recommend it if you are easily excitable or have a heart condition. You’ve been warned. 

1. Oh look, drums

2. I thought this would only have fiddles and bodhráns

3. I think I know this song

4. Well, I’ve never heard it, but I feel like my soul created it somehow

18. Surely those sounds can’t be coming from their feet

19. No way, no how

20. OH MY GOD THEY ARE, THEY REALLY ARE

21. Their toes are all in sync! Together, like tiny dancers themselves!

22. Jesus, this can’t be good for my heart

23. But my head is exploding with possibility!

24. I wonder if they sell treble shoes in my size…

25. Oh, the Spanish dancers
