James Greenan is one of the male leads with Riverdance, currently performing in China as part of the Riverdance Grand Theatre Tour.

As one of the lead dancers in Riverdance, Caterina Coyne has travelled all over the world and performed to audiences of hundreds of thousands of people.
She always had a keen interest in Irish dancing. After many years of hard practice, she decided to follow her dream of becoming a professional dancer.
She has danced in prestigious venues such as Radio City Music Hall in New York and the Gaiety Theatre in Dublin.
Now she is China for a ten-week tour, where she will perform to an expected audience of 86,000 people across 24 major cities.
Caterina was interviewed by Worldirish.com
Riverdance’s longest serving female principal dancer talks about her career with Riverdance.
” It makes me feel privileged. I know that when I joined the show, I never anticipated that I would have such a long run as lead. There are so many factors that go into the show from staying fit, to dancing at a level that you as a dancer are comfortable with, that I’m glad I still feel up to the task. It gives me great satisfaction that I’ve been able to entertain audiences at that level for so long, not only from a personal standpoint, but up to Riverdance’s high standards.”
‘You can’t deny that Riverdance has done wonders for the Irish dancing world. There are not many places we go in the world now where you don’t find a local Irish dance school.’
