A mirror of the soul – the idea behind Art on Ice 2025, about self-discovery and mental strength
Art on Ice 2025 will embark on an unusual journey. The ice, stage and performances will reflect emotions, inner struggles and the striving towards self-acceptance.
The show illustrates the full breadth of emotions – from noisy, urgent feelings to the quiet, frequently overlooked emotions that slumber deep in our subconscious. Happiness, pain, fear and love are all equally important for a fulfilled life. Even the demons and monsters that live within us are given space and recognition.
Art on Ice Dancers & skaters
Not only our star skaters showed top performances. Our dance crew on stage and on the ice are international professional dancers and skaters and have really been heating up the halls.

Main Character
The show follows a composer, played by Patrizio Ratto, known for his spectacular appearance on America’s Got Talent.
He is on a quest to find the perfect melody. His journey is a metaphor for our own self-discovery and reflects how our personalities and emotions grow and develop throughout life.
The composer struggles with inner conflicts and suddenly finds himself caught between his conscious and unconscious self. This world literally leads him up the slippery slope and allows him many encounters with the multi-layered levels of his subconscious.
