States Theatre New Brunswick Events: Irish step dancing show Lord of the Dance has been an international sensation for more than 20 years. Now, choreographed by Michael Flatley with music composed by Gerard Fahy, Lord of the Dance: Dangerous Games combines dance and music that fuses the traditional with the contemporary in a classic tale that showcases the exceptional talent of the cast. The show features cutting edge technology including a giant radiant flat screen that spans the width of the stage, special effects lighting, dancing robots, and world champion acrobats.
Lord of the Dance premiered at the magnificent Coliseum in London two decades ago, and in 2014 Michael Flatley transformed the show making it even more thrilling than the original. Lord of the Dance: Dangerous Games, with music composed by Gerard Fahy, premiered at the iconic London Palladium in September 2014 to mark the milestone 20th anniversary since Flatley became an international sensation. The show has since gone on to enjoy hugely successful runs in the West End, Broadway, the U.S., Canada, Ireland, Germany, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and Mexico.

His name and Lord of the Dance brand have become synonymous with spectacular artistry and grand scale productions that have mesmerized audiences around the globe.
