the real origin
April 3, 1994, a day that changed Irish dance and even the whole cultural history. When Mike stopped his dance steps at the end of the last scene of the 7-minute performance, the audience in the whole theater stood up and applauded them. At that moment, Mike shed tears of excitement because he knew that his dream of working hard for many years had finally come true. No one can appreciate the hard work and sweat that Mike had made in trying new dances and dancing in front of different audiences in the previous 1 years.
After it became a hit, the creative team headed by Mike continued to launch the whole tap dance variety show with the theme of riverdance, which was followed by rave reviews, full box office and constant performance contracts at home and abroad. Riverdance not only reformed the traditional dance itself, but also expanded an effective commercial road. Artists have created nearly 2 similar tap dance variety shows in this country where there was no professional folk dance troupe in the past.
