Hannah Rahman was the winner of the Holiday on Ice ‘Ice Factor’ Competition that attracted 24 young skaters and was held at Plymouth Pavilions Ice Rink on Wednesday 8th November. Freya Gidman and Jack O’Sullivan from Torquay and Plymouth achieved second place at the competition.
The contestants performed a 1½ minute routine in front a panel of judges that included Robin Cousins MBE and Vicki Usherwood, a professional ice skater in Holiday on Ice’s new show Tropicana. Hannah’s prize is to perform her own choreographed routine on the opening night at Exeter in front of thousands. Also impressing Robin Cousins, Freya and Jack have been asked to perform their piece at the show in Exeter in February.
Hannah, from Basingstoke said, “Thank you to Robin Cousins and Holiday on Ice for giving me such a wonderful opportunity. I am so excited about the show in February and meeting all of the Holiday on Ice Skaters.”
Commenting on the event, Robin Cousins told us, “There was a huge amount of talent taking part. Several of the skaters were good enough to have the potential to join a professional skating show like Holiday on Ice when they’re older. Hannah’s performance stood out; her performance brilliant. We are really looking forward to seeing what she comes up with for opening night. I encourage Exeter audiences to come along and support them on 14th February at the opening night of the show.”
Hannah has now been invited to perform at the opening night of TROPICANA – The Passion Tour. The show will delight audiences in Exeter at Westpoint Arena from 14th-19th February 2012. Created and choreographed by Robin Cousins, and featuring interpretations of some of the best loved songs from world-renowned songwriter Barry Manilow, the show takes you on a journey that celebrates love, life, music and dance in one of the most thrilling ice spectaculars you will ever see.
