Michael Flatley's world famous Lord of the Dance is a mesmerising blend of traditional and modern Celtic music and dance. The story is based upon mythical Irish folklore, with Don Dorcha, Lord of Darkness, challenging the ethereal lord of light, the Lord of the Dance. Battle lines are drawn, passions ignite and a love story fuelled by the dramatic leaps and turns of dancers’ bodies begins to build against a backdrop of Celtic rhythm. The action is played out over 21 scenes on a grand scale of precision dancing, dramatic music, colourful costumes and state-of-the-art staging and lighting.
