The grandest “Lord of the Dance” performance yet
Since 1996, Michael Flatley’s “Lord of the Dance” has been dazzling audiences, and this incredible new performance of the hit number is possibly the most inspiring yet.
Filmed after 9 months of inactivity, two weeks of quarantine, and only 3 days of rehearsal, a new lead, Matt Smith, takes over Michael Flatley’s iconic number with charm and charisma.
The performance starts with the iridescent “Little Spirit” playing the iconic pennywhistle before the stirring traditional Celtic music accompanies 2 lone Irish dancers whose timing and synergy are wonderful to see. The most incredible moment is when the dancers all line up and react like dominos to Matt Smiths’ direction. The timing is impeccable and it’s a real visual treat!
