RIVERDANCE - Final UK Dates of the Farewell Tour
Live Nation is proud to announce the final dates of the Riverdance Farewell Tour in ten cities across the UK from March 2010. This is the last chance for UK audiences to see the show rightly described by the Irish Times as “The Original...The Best”, there can be no further extension and there are no further dates to be released. Tickets are on sale from 11 September and can be purchased by phone on 0844 847 2533 or online at www.livenation.co.uk. The Washington Post exclaimed, “its continued popularity proves that it was, and remains, a phenomenon of historic proportions!”
“2010 will mark the show’s 15th anniversary and, since 1995, the success of RIVERDANCE in the UK has gone beyond our wildest dreams,” said producer Moya Doherty. “The fact that the show continues to draw and excite audiences is a tribute to every dancer, singer, musician, staff and crew member who have dedicated themselves to the show. We look forward to this farewell tour of the UK as it was always our intention to end on a high note.”
Composed by Bill Whelan, Produced by Moya Doherty and Directed by John McColgan, the full-length show opened in February 1995 in the Point Theatre, Dublin and Riverdance has performed across the UK where it has been experienced by over 2.9 million people in well over 1000 performances in 18 cities and the show has lost none of its magic. The worldwide TV audience for Riverdance is in excess of 2 billion people.
Riverdance has received rave reviews across the world but perhaps the simplicity of The Guardian’s verdict sums it up: “Dance does not often get so good.” ”Riverdance is a celebration of Irish dance and culture, presented with sophistication and vibrancy.” The Hollywood Reporter acclaimed, “the sort of spectacle and experience that comes along once in a lifetime.”
This series of dates in 2010 represent the final chance for UK Riverdance fans old and new to experience a truly phenomenal piece of theatrical entertainment, back by popular demand. Don’t miss out!
