Today there are only two Lords of the Dance in the world, handpicked by Michael Flatley as his successors for the 25th anniversary tour: Matt Smith and Cathal Keaney. This is Matt Smith and Team Lord rehearsing the show's title number. Matt Smith: the boy who followed his dream. As a small child he saw the original 1996 #LOTD video with Michael Flatley, pointed to the TV screen, and told his mum, "I want to be that." Fast-forward a quarter of a century, and Matt Smith *is* the Lord of the Dance.
