INTIMISSIMI ON ICE 2017

Great success for the seventh edition of the ice show in the arena

Special guest: Andrea Bocelli

Verona, October 8, 2017 - The Opera on Ice Company, with the show “Intimissimi on Ice,” brought the world's most famous ice skating champions back to the Arena of Verona for the seventh consecutive year, for two live sold-out evenings, setting a record for spectators from all over the world.
With “A Legend of Beauty,” the audience experienced the most authentic concept of the arena, thanks to a completely renewed central stage with 360° visibility.

For the first time in the history of the Arena show, all the main performers were Olympic medalists: Japanese champion Shizuka Arakawa, gold medalist at the 2006 Turin Olympics and 2004 world champion, the American dance pair Meryl Davis and Charlie White, with one gold, one silver, and one bronze Olympic medal, and the Canadian pair Meagan Duhamel and Eric Radford, silver medalists at the 2014 Olympics, the king of spins Stéphane Lambiel, silver medalist at the 2006 Turin Olympics, with two world golds and two bronzes, and the Russian czar Evgeni Plushenko, two-time Olympic champion, two-time Olympic silver medalist, and the only skater in the world to have won four Olympic medals.

The cast of international figure skating stars was completed with the Italian synchronized skating team Hot Shivers.
Alongside them, one of the greatest talents in opera and pop music, Maestro Andrea Bocelli.

On the ice, classical mythology is retold in a modern version: from Venus to Helen of Troy, from Circe to Medusa. The scenes' protagonists, representing the emotions and passions of contemporary women, were dressed for the occasion in costumes designed by Chiara Ferragni.

Directed by Damiano Michieletto, with stage design by Paolo Fantin, “Intimissimi on Ice” is a production and co-production of Intimissimi, Opera on Ice, and BWS. The choreography was curated by Nathan Clarke, Adrian Gas, Anna Solodilova, and Andrea Gilardi.
