Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean made their retirement announcement in February this year while in Sarajevo to commemorate their historic Gold medal winning performance to Ravel’s Bolero at the 1984 Winter Olympics – exactly 40 years to the day.
A tribute to their half-century legacy, this incredible show will give audiences a unique opportunity to experience and celebrate their iconic partnership for one last time in an arena spectacular.
