Riverdance turns 30 with a cast of dancers younger than the show Riverdance is marking 30 years with a new generation of dancers who were not born when the show made its debut.
"Riverdance was here before either of us were born, so we know that the legacy was created, we've never known life without Riverdance, and we take it on as a responsibility, as something to pass through to new generations.".
Lead dancers, Anna Mai and Fergus Fitzpatrick, are siblings from County Meath who grew up dreaming of touring with Riverdance.
Anna Mai said: "We absolutely feel the responsibility and we take that challenge completely positively, and we see it a bit more as an honour, rather than a heavy weight.
"Travelling, getting to do what you love and to see these amazing places, while taking care of the iconic show that is Riverdance.".
