Four stars
Storytelling Arts of Indiana;
Indiana History Center; April 5

Patrick Ball has come to Indianapolis many times, and his performances are always top-notch. This show was no different, except that it contained more jokes and anecdotes than actual stories, and Ball didn’t pull out the Irish accent as much. Instead, he gave a program that was much more conversational. One thing that didn’t deviate from past performances was his mesmerizing Celtic harp playing. There is simply nothing else like it. The sound defies description. Sublime. www.patrickball.com.
