Michael Flatley wins injunction blocking firm from cancelling Lord Of The Dance

In a statement Flatley welcomed the injunction and said the “show must go on and it will go on”

On Thursday, a legal order blocking Michael Flatley from engaging with the Lord Of The Dance production was overturned by a court in Belfast.

Lawyers for Michael Flatley have succeeded in obtaining a legal blocking order against the management company running the Lord Of The Dance shows.

The court in Belfast heard the Riverdance choreographer has been “in practice” with dancers, and sets and costumes were being taken away after a performance later this week was “unilaterally” cancelled without Flatley’s notice.
