World champion dancer Anthony Sharkey will be reunited with former Riverdance female lead, Eileen Martin for a special once-off version of Riverdance in Glór on Saturday, April 9 in aid of Clare Crusaders
St Patrick’s week 2010 was a very special week as Riverdance returned to Broadway in New York City to play 8 shows at Radio City Music Hall….
Words can not describe the feeling each of us had and the energy we felt opening night as we walked out on stage…..
With a very successful first week in Seoul, we were all looking forward to new experiences during our second week. This week the shopping continued, the Korean BBQ was enjoyed, a new set of markets were found, and ok, maybe a few nights out were enjoyed by the cast!
Well after a week off to spend relaxing at home with family and friends we were well rested and ready to come back on tour. This time we are touring the UK (Farewell tour) for two and a half months visiting all the big cities and a few small ones along the way.

This past Monday we had a long bus journey to Manchester, New Hampshire. We found ourselves in sunny, almost spring weather when we arrived, which made the drive well worth it for me! Everyone took the evening to relax and unwind and on Tuesday, we headed to the Verizon Arena for a one-night performance.
Our lighting electrician, Josh Moberly is from this part of New York, so his mother made us a huge assortment of delicious treats that were greeting us as we entered the theatre. There were so many, that they lasted through our run there and beyond!
Jason E Bernard asked his Father to bring him to see Riverdance when it first premiered at Radio City Music Hall in 1996. He saw the show and fell in love with it.
Monday we travelled from Frankfurt to Antwerp and when we arrived we were delighted to see that we finally had left the snow behind for good as there was torrential rain for the whole evening! We didn’t mind so much as we were fairly tired and just wanted to relax for the night as we know that we had a busy week ahead of us.
