Greenock skaters to bring Arabian Nights to Waterfront rink

The Waterfront Ice Skating Club’s cast of 140 skaters will present Arabian Nights on December 7 and 8.

The show will combine ‘breathtaking choreography’ with the ‘beloved story of adventure, friendship and love’.

Coach Kayleigh Munro said: “This year’s unforgettable show has been in the works since mid-September.

“The entire cast of 140 skaters has been working hard attending weekly rehearsals to pull together the show.

The club is now entering its final few weeks of rehearsals before the production takes place at the Waterfront ice rink.

With just under 900 tickets sold so far, it is hoped the show will be a sell out.
