If you thought all Irish dancers were curly-haired cutie-pies with perfect posture, meet a scowling misfit from London in this outrageous antidote to Riverdance. The Bad Arm has toured North America and received rave reviews in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Vancouver, Sacramento, Minneapolis, Atlanta, San Diego, Florida, and Dublin.

“Glorious riffs of Irish dance… animated impersonations and snapshot transitions…a world Clerkin captures so meticulously – GO” Stephen Leigh Morris,
LA Weekly

“One of the single best pieces of theatre I’ve ever seen…. packs a wallop, brings the house down”. Linda Purl, California International Theatre Festival
