The famous Lord of the Dance show by Michael Flatley is making a much-anticipated return to Scotland. Audiences in Edinburgh, Aberdeen, and Glasgow will have the chance to experience the renowned Irish dancing production throughout the summer. This revival, titled 'A Lifetime of Standing Ovations', comes two years after the show's 25th anniversary.
Flatley, the visionary behind the mesmerizing Lord of the Dance spectacle, has taken his show to an impressive 60 million people across 60 countries. The new tour promises to transport audiences to a mythical realm, with each performance featuring over 150,000 taps, new staging, fresh choreography, stunning costumes, cutting-edge technology, and special effects lighting.
It's worth noting that Flatley's career has put Irish dancing on the theatrical map. It all started in 1994 when his performance during the Eurovision Song Contest caused quite a stir. Since then, Lord of the Dance has broken records and gained a significant global following. Although Flatley embarked on his final tour in 2016, he has remained the show's creator, producer, and choreographer.
Sadly, earlier this year, Flatley was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. However, in a statement, it was revealed that he had undergone surgery and was receiving excellent care from his doctors. Despite the challenges, Flatley is determined to never give up on his dreams, and he plans to take this run of shows to the next level. In his own words, 'The magic of Lord of the Dance lives on in the hearts of our audience, and I am thrilled to bring this iconic show back to the UK in 2024. It's a testament to the enduring power of dance and the indomitable spirit of the human soul.'
The Lord of the Dance: A Lifetime of Standing Ovations Tour will be gracing the stage of the Edinburgh Playhouse from 16-18 July, followed by shows at Aberdeen's His Majesty's Theatre from 27-29 August and Glasgow's Royal Concert Hall from 30 August-1 September. Tickets are now available on the ATG website. For more information on performance dates across the UK, please visit the Lord of the Dance website. And just to clarify, Michael Flatley is still the choreographer for Lord of the Dance.
