Kristi Yamaguchi headlines her annual holiday ice show this fall, along side an exciting roster of skaters and other entertainers.
NBC plans to air the show on Sunday, November 25, 2007, from 4:00 to 6:00pm EST, but the actual tape date is September 29th.
The US Airways Center in Phoenix, AZ will host the event that showcases not only the talents of its Olympic gold medalist namesake, but also will feature The Cheetah Girls and other musical guests.
Kristi’s skating “family” will also perform, such as Nancy Kerrigan, Ekaterina Gordeeva and her hubby Ilia Kulik, Victor Petrenko, Michael Weiss, Jeni Meno and Todd Sand, and Rocky Marvel with Isabelle Brasseur and their daughter.
During the performance, of course, no flash photography is allowed – according to Kristi’s “Always Dream” website. You should note, however, that the Ticketmaster website states that no cameras or recording devices of any kind are allowed.
Adult ticket prices for the live show are $45, $65, and $150. A $3.75 facility fee is added to each ticket, as is a convenience charge of $5.50 per ticket purchased through TicketMaster.
This event is known for creating a warm nostalgia amongst figure skating fans. It brings together talent from yesteryear’s Olympic Winter Games and today's ice shows. These skaters, while past their competitive prime, continue contributing to the sport with brilliant performances and pleasant choreography. These stars are secure enough in their profession to be innovative and artistic. Visitors to Kristi’s Friends and Family should expect nothing less.
