It looks like Peaky Blinders<\/a> creator Steven Knight has been extremely busy lately, with the imminent release of the gang drama\u2019s sixth season, an upcoming Peaky Blinders movie<\/a> and<\/em> a dance theatre production based on the show.<\/p>\n Yes, you heard that right. The Peaky Blinders are taking to the stage, with tickets for the tour available to purchase today from the peakyblindersdance.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n The production, titled Peaky Blinders: The Redemption of Thomas Shelby, is a collaboration between Knight, Rambert Production, Birmingham Hippodrome and The Lowry, and has been directed and choreographed by Benoit Swan Pouffer.<\/p>\n The first show will take place on 27th September 2022 at the Birmingham Hippodrome before a UK tour, and will feature 20 dancers and a live band. It will pick up at the end of World War One, and follow \u201cTommy Shelby and Grace Burgess through their passionate love affair\u201d, a synopsis teases.<\/p> Speaking of the production, Steven Knight said: \u201cPeaky Blinders has always had music and movement at its heart and now the beating heart of the show will be transferred to the stage, an interpretation of Tommy\u2019s story performed by Rambert, one of the leading dance companies in the world.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is dance for people who don\u2019t usually watch dance and what I\u2019ve written has been transformed into something startling by consummate dancers and choreographers. If the concept of a Peaky Blinders dance seems strange, reserve judgement and reserve a ticket.\u201d<\/p>\n Pouffer added: \u201cPeaky Blinders: The Redemption of Thomas Shelby is something on a scale we\u2019ve never done before, and I couldn\u2019t be more ready for the challenge \u2013 it\u2019s such an exciting opportunity as a choreographer to tell these stories and recreate these characters through dance.<\/p>\n \u201cIt is also a great collaborative opportunity to have been working closely with Steven Knight on this original production. What you\u2019re going to get as a result will be an inspiring and uplifting dance show, but so much more than a dance show.<\/p>\n \u201cThere is of course a strong narrative, that of Tommy and the Peaky Blinders so it is dance, and it is also theatre. And with such iconic music from a live on-stage band, it is more again. I can\u2019t wait to bring these hugely popular characters to the stage here in Birmingham, then on tour to audiences around the country.\u201d<\/p>\n You can buy tickets for Peaky Blinders: The Redemption of Thomas Shelby here<\/a>.
