Not every Irish music act wants to put on an upbeat hoolie like the Elders do, or a rowdy Dropkick Murphys–type throwdown or an Eddie Delahunt tears-in-your-Guinness affair. Take
Celtic Thunder, for instance. The classical-crossover ensemble lines up soft hits and choreography, with highly PBS-friendly results. Expect dazzling green lights, dramatic effects and handsome young Irish faces. And remember that Celtic Thunder has special love for KC — its DVD
Voyage was shot at the Midland (1228 Main, 816-283-9921) — the same spot for this 8 p.m. show. Tickets cost $47.25–$72.25; see
