Product Information

They were hand-picked and trained by Flatley himself and have starred in the West End and UK touring shows of Lord of the Dance: Dangerous Games. Such a Shame that the talent and stammer required to be a professional Irish Dancer was totally Lost in this Miss Mash of a nonsensical Show. It’s the kind of show that you watch with your mouth open, and then later think back on it and wonder if you really just saw what you think you saw. This weekend Cardiff has had the luck of the Irish as Michael Flatley’s worldwide phenomenon ‘Lord of the Dance: Dangerous Games’ has played in St David’s Hall.

Michael Flatley's Lord Of The Dance: Dangerous Games is set to have its West End premiere at the legendary London Palladium on 1 September, 2014. Flatley said, “I’m delighted that London has once again welcomed us so warmly, and to be able to extend the show’s run by moving to the very beautiful Playhouse Theatre makes me feel immensely proud of what we’ve achieved. In my opinion this show is something everyone should experience once in their lifetime as it will enthral you. This Irish-American step-dancing star, now 57, has announced that he will retire from performing at the end of this eight-week run. He took a genre of ethnic-pride competitions and small spaces (Irish dance lore is full of stories of dancing on doors taken down off their hinges or even on plates), and he blew it up and gave it mass appeal.The main reason to see Michael Flatley’s “ Lord of the Dance: Dangerous Games,” which opened on Tuesday at the Lyric Theater, is to watch Michael Flatley dancing. Nadine Coyle was one fifth of the pop group Girls Aloud, whose record-breaking success included over 4. Flatley’s productions have sold out in theatres around the world for years, and he insists this is due to such positive word of mouth. With new music by composer Gerard Fahy, this ‘extraordinary and supremely stirring show’ (Daily Telegraph) combines the best of tradition with all the excitement of new music and dance.

Multi award-winning, multi record-breaking T he Lord of Dance - Dangerous Games, transfers to the Playhouse Theatre from the Dominion Theatre. As the first half of the show begins the audience are greeted with a projected Michael Flatley and a giant clock alluding to the opening of the show. This has been the problem for 20 years, since he transformed traditional Irish dance into souped-up spectacles.

Last week Michael Flatley welcomed press to the London Palladium where his final West End show, entitled Lord Of The Dance: Dangerous Games, opens next Monday (1st September) for a limited run.First came “ Riverdance,” followed by the original “Lord of the Dance,” productions that conquered the world and sold out stadiums. I have been looking forward to watching this show for a long time and being a tap dancer myself can appreciate the hard work and effort that goes into this form of dancing. The perfectly balanced ensemble of male and female dancers help to give depth to the story and in the dance sequences when they are all in a line and coordinated it really is something to admire. If you’re a fan of this type of dancing and the Irish music and culture this show is without a doubt the show for you to attend next. You can’t help but have a big smile on your face when the full ensemble cast fill the width of the stage at St David’s Hall and with their legs kicking and tapping in perfect sync.

The plot follows a little Spirit with a magic flute who battles against evil to save Ireland from being taken over by evil cyborgs.
