No, definitely not Evgeni (Evgeni skated to "Nessun Dorma" later). Agree, all light effects look really good. I'm less impressed by the fact that they re-use the music again, almost all the pieces that have been there since... 2014. But the show as a whole looks great this year. And Stephane is super charming in that number from what I could see.

he looks charming ... but I‘m not sure I like this „cheek to cheek“ song he is skating to. have to wait to see more of it. And it‘s true: they keep recycling quite some songs ... (Will I ever be able to not connect „Chandelier“ with Stephane? and „Nessun Dorma“? (Strange to see it skated by others, though)

...and "Tell". Yes, it's not really possible for me to enjoy performance of someone else to his music.

Found Stephane's second number (don't know this opera piece) - update: Casta Diva from Norma by Vincenzo Bellini 1, 2, 3Do you think this... hmmm... half naked young man with a shield, skating in the middle, is also Stephane?

Thank you very much for finding videos, reut. And I totally agree with jomeku and reut, it's really strange to watch other skaters perform Stephane's song... Yes, I think that "half naked young man" is Stephane. (Less clothes and skirt again? Like Opera on ice ) Also Stephane, video can't be posted, please check here: www.instagram.com/mako21mako/http://instagr.am/p/BZ4rGEvjQFsnGuxhvxr_i5hTDjeyt6DUFrAV0A0

That account is private, that's why it can't be posted, I think.

Stephane skates to Casta Diva, a beautiful dramatic aria from Norma: www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Jlav6SfqMsIt seems a bit generic and the bed? is awefully distracting. I'm not sure about that. Looks like completely new music this year, no Nessun Dorma (I enjoy it but enough is enough).

Just to say: Stephane skated beautifully to all the three pieces! Besides to „Casta Diva“ and „Cheek to Cheek“ he participated in a group nunber with the Hot Shivers Synchro Team to an ‚Original Composition‘: „The Song of the Sea“. It was a simular role and choreo like „Chandelier“ in 2015. But with a special entrance of Stephane. You will see in a video 😋. By the way: Concerning the bed in Casta Diva: Stephane used it in the end, you‘ll see in a video, too. „Nessun Dorma“ was reserved to Evgeni Plushenko this year as the planned highlight of the show, to the wonderful voice of Andrea Bocelli. And they did very well together and were frenetically applaused.It was the only performance of Evgeni. In the booklet he was announced as „special guest skater“. The main protagonist were Stephane and Shizuka. Stephane got huge applauses! Very much deserved ones!! 🤗 There were also Davis/White and Duhamel/Radford, as we know. But almost half of the show were group numbers. More tomorrow

Thank you for your review, jomeku! Sounds like a fun show. Looking forward to your "more later", and to your impressions of the eagerly anticipated fan meeting!
