A triumphant production with beautiful sets and world champion skaters, it is a dramatic and novel interpretation of the timeless fairytale, with a stunning new score. A firm favourite with both adults and children, this is one of the most expensive and artistically challenging ice shows ever created. It features over 35 skaters including 20 World, European and National Championship skaters, who between them hold more than 250 competition medals.
“The art form of ice dance lends itself beautifully to this well-loved tale. Not only does the story entail some beautiful romantic ‘adagios’ with lifts and jumps, allow us to introduce some gymnastics, flying, acrobatics, fire and magic.” (Tony Mercer)
Fascinating to note that 14 tonnes of ice are used for Imperial Ice Star productions with the ice reaching temperatures of minus 15 degrees. The ice rink takes over 140 man-hours to build but only 30 man-hours to dismantle. Facts that underline the sheer scale of the production.
