Riverdance veterans Jean Butler and Colin Dunne served as stars, producers and choreographers of this Irish-flavored dance adaptation of the ancient Celtic myth "The Hunt for Diarmuid and Grania." Bearing discernable traces of the King Arthur legend, the story concerns the clandestine romance between Grainne (Jean Butler), the wife of Royal Irish Army commander Finn McCool (Tony Kemp), and Diarmuid (Colin Dunne), McCool's finest and most trusted warrior. The music was specially written for this production by Seamus Egan, and performed by the Irish folk group Solas. Recorded at the Royal Theatre in Drury Lane, Dancing on Dangerous Ground was given limited theatrical play beginning in December of 1999. Pared down from 74 to 60 minutes, the all-dance extravanganza made its American cable-TV debut over the Bravo network on March 17, 2003. Hal Erickson, Rovi

I LOVE this show! I saw it on TV and fell in love with it. I decided to purchase the DVD. It's such a great story and you can see the dancer's faces. The dancers act out the story and it's nice to see their facial reactions. Since the show is taped, we can now experience the fantastic show like a movie. The sets bring the story to life, the costumes are interesting (not boring like they usually are in Irish Step), the music is actually good, the dancing is superb...Jean and Colin just did a great job with this show!! Really, I can't say enough about this show. It plays periodically on the Ovation Network. Also, don't forget that Behind the Scenes are included with this DVD. I love to look into how shows were produced.
