In a Nutshell

Fiddles and Celtic drumming fuel Irish dancers’ kicks, taps, and twirls in a show that has crisscrossed the globe

The Fine Print

Music is a force powerful enough to calm a baby, soothe a wild beast, or compel the two to dance with each other. Be overcome by this GrouponLive to see Lord of the Dance created by Michael Flatley at Toyota Presents Oakdale Theatre in Wallingford. For $20, you get one G-Pass for seating in balcony sections 300–303 on Sunday, February 10, at 7 p.m. (up to a $35 value, including all fees). Doors open at 6 p.m. Because the ticket is a G-Pass, Groupon customers can use it to enter the venue directly; they will not need to redeem their Groupon at will call.

For 16 years and across 68 countries, the ensemble of traditional Irish dancers who make up Lord of the Dance have thundered across stages with kicks, taps, and twirls, all while keeping their upper torsos patently still. Jaws drop as dance principal James Keegan storms the stage, showcasing the skills that earned him numerous international championship titles in Irish dance and the role of the Lord of Dance at age 19.

Twenty-one scenes tell the ultimate tale of good versus evil as lights shimmer across colorful costumes and a fiddle pierces the rhythmic Celtic drumming that heralds the battle between the Lord of Darkness and the Lord of Dance. Tethered to the show’s dramatic plotline is a romance, proving that love has no bounds, just as teeth marks found in blocks of cheese prove roommates have no shame.

Due to security restrictions, G-Passes must be printed out and presented in person at the event. They cannot be redeemed through Groupon's mobile app.

The Dome at Oakdale

Once the site of an alfalfa field, the original Oakdale sprang up during the theater-in-the-round craze of the 1950s. Its spinning stage drew stars such as Harry Belafonte, The Who, and Led Zeppelin, who all serenaded the open-air crowds of the ‘60s while simultaneously completing their gyroscope training for Apollo shuttle missions. In 1997, the Oakdale Theatre was made over into its current, 4,600-seat arrangement, which has ushered in a new generation of entertainment stars ranging from Barney to Britney.

For those who prefer standing up and shaking it during live concerts, the adjoining concert space known as The Dome mixes the comfort of a suburban theater with the energy of a downtown club as revelers revel beneath its wooden steeple.

The Groupon Guide to: Your Dream Body

If you find yourself with hours and hours of free time every day, spend it productively—by thinking about or drawing your dream body. Here are some things that belong on the perfect you:

  • Long, flowing hair
  • Long, flowing foot hair, so you can donate regularly to a wig shop without cutting your head hair
  • Two noses: one for smelling and one for eating small foods
  • Edible, beef-flavored tongue
  • Legs and arms switched
  • Fingers that somehow aren't as disgusting as normal human fingers. Maybe they don't have knuckles, or each finger has a diamond-shaped tip. Anything to make them less disgusting.
  • Entirely sword-resistant

If your nose had teeth, would you stop using your mouth to eat?
