(Las Vegas, NV- May 15, 2008) – “ICE: The Show from Russia” is celebrating its first anniversary at the Riviera Hotel and Casino and Las Vegas locals are welcomed to celebrate. Available for purchase on May 21, ICE is offering “one day, $1 tickets” to all Las Vegas residents (valid ID required) to commemorate their successful year at the Strip Resort.
With a year’s worth of nightly performances, ICE, the Russian skating spectacular, has transformed the Versailles Theater into an ice skating epicenter. The 2,700 sq ft. frozen stage is the only one-of-its-kind in Las Vegas, allowing 42 Russian cast members to combine aerial artistry, hand balancing, live musical instruments and comedic performances, followed by seductive skating through the aisles of the intrigued audience.
During their performances, Russia's most disciplined and athletic performers converge on one stage to bring you an unprecedented epic production based on works by the founder of Moscow Ice Circus, Sergey Ryshkoff and adapted by the team of Emmy award winning choreographer Debra Brown.
“Since creating the Moscow Ice Circus in Russia nearly 20 years ago, it has always been my dream to bring it to Las Vegas,” said Sergey Ryshkoff, creator of the Moscow Ice Circus and ICE: The Show from Russia. “It has been an amazing year at the Riviera and I look forward to the years to come,” he added.
ICE: The show from Russia performs Sunday through Thursday at 8 p.m. within the Versailles Theater at the Riviera Hotel and Casino. Tickets start at $76.77 plus tax and fee.
