This is such a wonderful portrayal of the Scots-Irish journey to America. The music is magical and inspirational, the dancing is the best of our hertiage, the story spectacular. It's a wonderful journey of emotion from sadness to laughter. Well worth it!

If you love music and dance mixed with history than this is for you. Filmed live with a huge cast of professional dances from several different styles, it is the story of the journey of the Scots-Irish from Scotland to Ireland and eventually to America. Even though it is about one nationality of people the message and story of the immigration of the Scots-Irish can be seen reflected in the stories of all people who immigrated to America.
Featuring the powerful voice of Scots-Irish singer Peter Corry and the beautiful Scottish singer, Alyth, you learn of the hardships, difficulties and joys of a people who had such powerful impact on American history but have been largely unknown.

A two disc set, the show disc is good and the Documentary disk tells about the Scotch-Irish who came to America before the Revolution.
All Americans will enjoy the story no matter their own ethnic background.
An uplifting Musical.
