The genius creative team behind the hit TV Series Peaky Blinders, and Britain's oldest ballet company, Rambert, have joined forces. The stage of the Wales Millennium Centre brings a new dimension to the Thomas Shelby story, in a new dance production of the gritty TV drama.
Written and adapted for the stage by Peaky Blinders’ creator Steven Knight, PEAKY BLINDERS: THE REDEMPTION OF THOMAS SHELBY, is a dance theatre show directed and choreographed by Rambert’s Artistic Director Benoit Swan Pouffer.
It's actually Rambert’s first collaboration of this kind and through dance theatre picks up the story of the Peaky Blinders at the end of World War One, following Tommy Shelby and Grace Burgess through their passionate love affair. While Tommy is building his empire, Grace is operating as an undercover agent for Special Branch on a mission to get close to the heart of Tommy’s gang. As the story unfolds, many hearts are broken.
The tour gets underway in Birmingham this September, getting to the Wales Millenium Centre on the 21st march 2023.
