For over 20 years, nothing has carried the energy, the sensuality and the spectacle of Riverdance. Riverdance began its journey as the interval act in the 1994 Eurovision Song Contest, produced for television by
Moya Doherty. This electrifying and innovative seven minute dance piece was then developed into a full-length stage show by Producer
Moya Doherty, Composer
Bill Whelan and Director
John McColgan. With its fusion of Irish and International music and dance, the show broke all box office records during its world première run in Dublin in early 1995 and has continued to set new records in packed theatres and arenas throughout North America, Australia and New Zealand, Asia, Europe, South Africa and most recently South America.
