Red Bull Flying Bach

The Flying Steps and opera director Christoph Hagel break dance to an interpretation of Johann Sebastian Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier.

After countless performances around the world and six sold-out shows in Chicago last summer, the celebrated and distinguished dance crew The Flying Steps and Red Bull Flying Bach will return to the U.S. this fall for an exclusive engagement. This year, the tour will hit Chicago for two performances at the historic Chicago Theatre on September 25-26.

The Four-time breakdance world champions The Flying Steps and opera director Christoph Hagel give a breathtaking performance, set to an interpretation of Johann Sebastian Bach’s The Well-Tempered Clavier. The show combines Bach’s classical masterpiece with modern electronic beats and clever choreography, dazzling audiences while shifting the borders between classical and urban culture. Expect a powerhouse production that’s equal parts visual amusement and delightful sound. The elegant music along with explosive moves creates an amazing and entertaining show for people of all ages and demographics.

Red Bull Flying Bach Chicago will be two performances only: Friday and Saturday evenings, September 25th and 26th at 8:00pm. Tickets for both shows go on-sale Saturday, May 16 at 10:00 am.
