In this immersive film experience of the stage adaptation of the hit BBC series, “Peaky Blinders: The Redemption of Thomas Shelby,” writer Steven Knight and choreographer and director Benoit Swan Pouffer present a thrilling fusion of dance theater and rock concert. Set to music and lyrics by Roman GiaArthur (Grammy Nominee, American R&B musician, singer, songwriter, and record producer), the elaborate performance evokes dramatic imagery to portray the social and psychological effects of World War I in postwar industrial Birmingham. A continually shifting stage space sets soldiers, gangsters, workers, lovers, and fantastic visions reeling through sensual encounters and fatal confrontations. The dynamic performers of London’s Rambert dance company and an onstage band tell the story of Tommy as he navigates violence, intrigue, and heartbreak to find peace.
