    Feet of Flames grew out of Michael Flatley's Lord of the Dance, which itself sprung from the original dance concert Riverdance in which Michael was a performer. Each new incarnation was an improvement over the previous until Feet of Flames was performed before a live audience of 25,000 attendees at Hyde Park in the center of London on July 25, 1998. This show can be viewed as a three act performance with the innovation that for the first time Celtic Dancers were told to use their arms as a part of their choreography.
