Tapeire "Driven by Rhythm" Devine, James performer Theatrical Performance 2007-11-09 New Victory Theater November 9-25, 2007. The Devine Dance Company of Ireland, led by James Devine, presenting Celtic rhythms, punk rock, hip-hop and funk collide with Irish dance, as Devine, the Guinness Book of World Records' "Fastest Dancer" takes New York by storm. Tapeire marries an older, less flashy version of Irish dancing than the "Riverdance" variety with rhythm tap, live music and a contemporary sensibility. (Claudia Larocca, "Caution: Children Watching. How Far do You Push the Envelope?" New York Times November 9, 2007, E18.)
