AN exhilarating fusion of fire, air, earth and water is the theme of the sensational new Holiday on Ice production, Spirit – presented by the world’s most visited ice show and five times winner of Best Event For Groups.

This spectacular show is coming to the Echo Arena in Liverpool from January 28 to 31 – and three families will be there to enjoy the glittering event in our fabulous St Helens Star competition, with the overall winner getting the chance to meet the stars of the show.

Celebrated artistic director Robin Cousins MBE and choreographer Karen Kresge have co-produced a cultural extravaganza of inspirational ice skating, combining the natural beauty of the four elements with global traditions and modern rhythms.

A voyage from east to west, world-class ice skaters glide from sunrise to nightfall, recreating the ethnic splendour of Asian cultures, ancient mysticism of Stonehenge and tribal gathering of Native American Indians.

Earth awakens with the sun rising in the east, while ancient wise men evoke the wind and worship the mystical forces of the tranquil element of air, a lively nymph plays in the beautiful water garden and powerful dancers summon up the fire spirits.

Musical director Maurice Luttikhuis explores the nature of the human spirit with an emotional and passionate score, where the haunting melody of the Chinese Warrior ice dance contrasts with the pulsing Hip Hop beat of the urban street dance number.

Holiday on Ice, and their new production Spirit, offers a complete entertainment experience for all ages, with an international award winning set, dramatic scene changes, creative lighting and a dazzling collection of over 350 extravagant costumes.

Skaters tumble from the sky in amazing, airborne gymnastics and spiral and dance on the ice with dynamic energy, performing some of the most dramatic lifts ever choreographed in a Holiday On Ice production.

For your chance to win one of three family passes, with the overall winer getting the chance to meet the stars of the show, simply answer the following question, and send your entries to Spirit competition to arrive no later than Friday, November 27. Winners will be notified.
