For the first time in the history of Holland Dance Festival there will be a real heavy metal ballet experience. The Dutch premiere takes place today, Wednesday, June 12, and after that the performance can be seen exclusively until June 15 in the new Luxor Theater, Rotterdam. Black Sabbath - The Ballet is a theatrically spectacular dance and music performance, where the sparks will fly.
