This performance is an unprecedented adaptation of a modern pop culture phenomenon—a television series—into the language of contemporary dance. The story of Thomas Shelby and his family, known from the British TV series Peaky Blinders, has captivated millions of viewers worldwide. Now, this gripping narrative makes its way to the stage as a high-octane dance theatre production.
London’s Rambert Dance Company—the UK’s oldest contemporary dance company, founded in 1926 by Polish dancer Marie Rambert—joins forces with choreographer Benoit Swan Pouffer to bring this story to life. After a string of acclaimed performances across the UK, the production was recorded by the BBC during its 2024 run at the Birmingham Hippodrome. Audiences at the Music Gardens Festival will have the rare opportunity to experience this extraordinary screening.
The performance is a thrilling fusion of expressive dance, powerful music, and compelling storytelling—crafted by none other than Steven Knight, the series’ creator and screenwriter. This production proves that the boundaries between high art and popular culture can blur, resulting in a work that is both artistically rich and emotionally resonant.
