RIVERDANCE, the internationally acclaimed celebration of Irish music, song and dance, comes to the Sony Centre For The Performing Arts for the last time, for four performances only, April 19-21, 2012. This is the last chance to see RIVERDANCE in Toronto, as the North American tour will close forever in June 2012. 

For the past 16 years RIVERDANCE has enthralled over 22 million audience members with the innovative and exciting blend of dance, music and song.  Drawing on Irish traditions, The Combined talents of 28 performers propel Irish dancing and music into the present day capturing the imagination of audiences across all ages and cultures.
 
RIVERDANCE has performed in Toronto on five separate occasions since it’s world premiere in 1995. The Sony Centre For The Performing Arts became the Canadian home away from home for RIVERDANCE as they have performed at the Centre four times, as the O’Keefe Centre and Hummingbird Centre.  This marks a bittersweet stop on the tour as RIVERDANCE says goodbye to Toronto audiences on the prestigious stage of the Sony Centre For The Performing Arts. 
 
RIVERDANCE will perform at the Sony Centre For The Performing Arts as part of a Canadian tour with stops in London, Hamilton, Ottawa, Montreal, Fredericton and Sydney.
 
SONY CENTRE FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS, Toronto’s first performing arts centre, has played a defining role in the cultural life of Toronto for more than 50 years. Today, the newly renovated Sony Centre is home to a roster of national and International Artists that reflect the diversity and sophistication of 21st century Toronto. In addition, the Sony Centre is dedicated to developing Toronto’s younger audiences through family programming, workshops targeted towards school-aged audiences, an under-30 membership program, and other community initiatives including an international culinary experience. www.sonycentre.ca.
