Sorry for being AWOL--I injured my hand in January and have limited hoursto type, also, busy rushing around at Tribeca Film Festival and voting on shows for the Outer Critics Circle (tonight: A Long Day's Journey into Night, starring Gabriel Byrne and Jessica Lange! and stay tuned for interviews with some of the Irish cast in The Crucible)

In the interests of getting this out to you quick quick quick we're not sending description with this giveaway-- we know you know who Martin Hayes and Dennis Cahill are, and heck, even the Non-Irish and Non-Jirish know Riverdance! The latter are having their 20th anniversary tour, and we have a pair of tickets to give away in NJ.

Happy Passover, to my Jirish pals!

Susan McKeown's Irish festival CualaNYC has started NYC and we hope to send you more information on that soon.

Meanwhile--

Jump on it!

Cheers,

Gwen
