For the past 34 years, Ice Theatre of New York has created and advanced ice dance as a performing art form and presented public performances and education for people of all ages.
ITNY's mission is to celebrate and advance dance on ice as a performance art. Through its performances in both traditional and site specific venues, ITNY presents ice dance that helps to open ones eyes to seeing skating in new and unexpected ways. ITNY was the very first ice dance company to receive dance program funding from the National Endowment for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.
“Ensemble groups like Moira North’s Ice Theater may be the best hope for the future simply because they recall what skating has the potential to be: dancing on air.” - New York Times
