“Feasts for the eye…a compelling and immersive experience.” – Kerrang!

The raucous energy of heavy metal rock meets the strength and athleticism of ballet in this spectacular new work from Birmingham Royal Ballet, presented in its U.S. premiere by Virginia Arts Festival. With eight classic Black Sabbath hits arranged for orchestra and rock band, and a live guitarist onstage with the dancers, the pulsing light show frames the action in an unforgettable experience.

This is a Virginia Arts Festival presentation that is not eligible for Virginia Symphony Orchestra vouchers, subscriptions, comps, or exchanges. Tickets must be purchased directly from the Virginia Arts Festival at the link provided or by phone at (757) 282-2822.
