About The Performer

The Timeless Torches

The Timeless Torches show that you don’t have to be young to be a Liberty fan – just young at heart! This dance group consists of men and women over the age of 40 who want to share their love of performance with the New York Liberty crowd!

The Timeless Torches made their debut in 2005 and have been a Liberty staple ever since! Aside from energizing the crowd when they hit the court and appearing at events around the city, the Timeless Torches have been showing their Liberty spirit to a national audience through performances and guest appearances. You may have seen them on hit TV shows such as ABC’s The Chew, Good Morning America, NBC’s 30 Rock, and a number of network morning shows. The Timeless Torches have also represented New York by performing at WNBA All-Star Games in 2006, 2007, and 2009 as well as the 2015 NBA All-Star Celebrity Game in New York City.
