Royal Albert Hall to be iced over for show
The Royal Albert Hall stage will be frozen over for just the second time in history when Cinderella on Ice comes to the theatre later this month.
The Imperial Ice Stars production, which stars Dancing on Ice's Olga Sharutenko, is the first sub-zero show to come to the arena since John Curry Symphony on Ice 25 years ago.
Performed on a specially-created stage frozen at minus 15 degrees Celsius, Cinderella on Ice has already been performed in Australia and New Zealand and the show will travel to Korea, Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, Japan and South Africa over the next two years.
Director of events at the Royal Albert Hall, Jasper Hope, said: "With the recent rise in popularity of ice dance and ice skating generally in the UK at present, we're delighted for this great opportunity to be able to remind people just how flexible a venue the Hall remains."
