International Phenomenon Riverdance – The 20th Anniversary World Tour Opens at The Venetian Theatre

Still time to book tickets for one of the most-loved productions in dance history,
at The Venetian Macao


(Macao, Jan. 24, 2017) – Featuring new costumes, lighting, projections and dance routines, Riverdance – The 20th Anniversary World Tour has opened in spectacular style at The Venetian Theatre, The Venetian Macao, and will run until Feb. 5, 2017 for a limited season
 

Riverdance is an innovative and exciting blend of dance and music that draws on Irish traditions and has been seen live by over 21 million people worldwide, capturing the imagination of audiences across all ages and cultures.
 

Based around the story of the Irish people’s history and global movement, the show enthralls with its power, precision and sensuality. In addition to new costumes, lighting and projections, a brand new song, “Anna Livia”, featuring the female members of the dance troupe in an a cappella hard-shoe number have been added.
 

Riverdance – The 20th Anniversary World Tour also incorporates thrilling international flavours, such as flamenco dancing and an acrobatic Russian ensemble. A definite crowd pleaser is the humorous routine ‘Trading Taps’, which pits Irish and tap dancers against a New York backdrop.
 

As one of the world’s top theatrical productions, Riverdance has been dubbed an “evergreen Broadway show”, “Irish national treasure” and “world’s dance textbook”. During the past 20 years it has staged over 18,000 performances, won over an audience of 36 million at more than 117 countries and region. Its soundtrack has been recognised by the Grammy Awards as Best Musical Show Album, and is certified platinum, selling more than 11 million albums, making it the number one in theatrical show soundtrack history.
 

For the 20th Anniversary World Tour, the original Riverdance team of composer Bill Whelan, producer Moya Doherty and director John McColgan have been reunited. The set design is by Robert Ballagh, lighting design by John Comiskey, costume design by Joan Bergin and sound design by Michael O’Gorman.
