Rhythm of the Night, Irish Dance Spectacular, returns to Penn’s Peak during its fifth consecutive U.S. tour. Show time is 8 p.m. Saturday.

The performance wages a battle between good and evil for the nontraditional 22-member cast.

Led by creator, producer and story hero, Justin Boros, the performance will intrigue audience members with its fast feet, glittery costumes and mesmerizing music.

Narrated by an orchestral-composed sound track, the Gothic tale centers on when evil’s influence claims the land and its greatest hero. The wicked sorceress Azura has captured the kingdom’s greatest hero, Balor, and placed him under her spell.

Balor now leads her army of relentless henchmen in a plan to dominate all opposition. The question of whether Balor can be turned back to the kingdom’s champion or remain its dark enforcer hangs in the air until the ending battle scene.

“We wanted to do something different, but everyone can relate to a good redemption story,” said Boros. “There’s a lot of high-energy battle scenes. The dancers are doing 30 taps a second. It’s very precise.”

The show has been selling out venues all over the country for over five years, Boros said.

In addition to the recorded score, two violinists accompany the original soundtrack.

“It’s very full and rich music. It really enhances the dancing to a different level.”

Boros was only 15 years old when he saw the original Lord of the Dance, Michael Flatley, performing on television. He said he was captivated.

“They came and performed at a local stadium. Afterward I found a pair of hard shoes, a long-sleeve shirt and for a year-and-a-half, I practiced in my parents’ basement,” said the Ohio native.

He eventually auditioned for Flatley’s tour and was taken on board.

Twenty years later, Boros is the lead of his own show where professionals from all over the world come to audition to be a part of the nontraditional dance.

Boros said the audience can expect an epic ending to the tale.
