They dance across chairs and tables, they set the stage on fire, they tap faster than anyone before: The Irish Dance spectacular MAGIC OF THE DANCE is coming to _____________ on ____________! Cheering, applause and standing ovations rule the night on the current World Tour. The audience is spellbound not only by exciting choreographies, a wonderful love story and Irish music, but also by a real world sensation: The mere speed of his taps sets a dancer’s feet on fire! Fiery Michael Donnellan, twice World Champion of Irish Dancing, pounds the stage with an incredible 40 taps per second. Michael may have danced lead parts in “Riverdance” and “Lord of the Dance” in the past, but MAGIC OF THE DANCE with “Burning Feet” is his biggest challenge yet. His enthusiasm is supported around the globe by a jubilant press who describe MAGIC OF THE DANCE as “the most entertaining dance show of the present”. MAGIC OF THE DANCE shows why Irish Tap Dance is the biggest audience magnet: it is the blend of apparent effortlessness, gracefulness and joy combined with gripping dance acts, explosive taps and powerful music that accounts for the world’s fascination with Irish Tap Dance. Amongst the new highlights this season are the “New York Tap All Stars” with their spectacular new choreographies. Just returned from recent shows in New York and Las Vegas, they will without a doubt put a spell on MAGIC OF THE DANCE’s audience as well. The four American Tap talents impress with skillful staccatos of taps and clicks at breathtaking speed. PRESS INFORMATION The Irish Tap Dance Sensation with "Burning Feet"!
