NEW YORK—Performing for the first time on Broadway can be both a sobering and heady experience. But making your Broadway debut at the same time you’ve announced your retirement adds a bit of nostalgia to the mix, which is the case for “Lord of the Dance: Dangerous Games” star Michael Flatley.
The creative vision of Flatley—a dancer, director, producer, and choreographer, as well as a master flutist—almost single-handedly changed the face of Irish dancing. Now, after more than two decades at the forefront of that world, his career as a dancer is coming to an end.
The production features holograms, pyrotechnics, and dancing robots.
