One of the Irish dancers, Meghan Lucey was very excited to be part of the show: "What an amazing experience.. a fantastic show and a fun two nights hanging out with the Olympians. I had a blast! The Olympian and world champion ice skaters are absolutely amazing."

Pat Mangan a music  performer with "Riverdance On Ice" described the performance as incredible.






This new show includes world class figure skaters such as Olympic silver medalists Sasah Cohen (pictured above) and Tanith Belbin, Ben Agosto, as well as Todd Eldredge (pictured below), Shae-Lynn Bourne and more.
