The Gothard Sisters – a dynamic all-female Irish music and dance group from the Pacific Northwest – returns to the Auburn Avenue Theater for a 2 o’clock matinee performance Sunday.

Recently returning from a national tour, their live show is under large demand as high-energy, family-friendly entertainment steeped in Celtic and folk roots, classical violin chops, champion Irish step-dancing and lots of fun.

The Gothard Sisters have recently been awarded “Best New Irish Artist” in the Irish Music Awards and “Album of the Year” from Celtic Radio for the album Story Girl.

Tickets are $20 regular, $18 students and seniors. Call Auburn Parks, Arts & Recreation at 253-931-3043, Monday-Thursday, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.; Friday, 8 a.m. to noon, or order online for will-call-only pickup at www.brownpapertickets.com.
