.The world’s premiere theatrical ice skating company, THE IMPERIAL ICE STARS, return to the UK this autumn with a dynamic new interpretation of their award-winning masterpiece Swan Lake on Ice, as part of a two year, 22-country world tour. The Swan Lake on Ice UK tour comes to Venue Cymru in Llandudno for one week only from the 19th to 23rd October

After receiving standing ovations from UK audiences on each of their previous three tours, they earned outstanding reviews the last time they played Llandudno with Cinderella on Ice in 2009 with their adrenaline-infused performances.

This production of Swan Lake on Ice features exhilarating new choreography and some of the world’s most stylish dancing on ice from Artistic Director Tony Mercer, who is regarded as the world’s leading creator of theatre on ice and lives just outside Llandudno so is especially looking forward to performing at his local venue.

The 26 World, European and National Championship skaters, who make up the Imperial Ice Stars and who between them hold more than 250 competition medals, take contemporary ice dance to a new level with their daring and graceful feats – some of which are so complex they haven’t yet been named – in the intimate setting of a frozen theatre stage.

Whether you’ve seen The Imperial Ice Stars’ Swan Lake on Ice before or have yet to experience the thrill of world-class ice skating in the intimacy of the theatre, this dramatic new ice interpretation of one of the most popular ballets will have you on the very edge of your seat.
