<figure class="wp-block-pullquote"><blockquote><p>This Halloween season, descend beneath the Paris Opera House for the world premiere of <a href="https://twincitiesballet.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Twin Cities Ballet</a>&#8216;s <em>Phantom of the Opera</em>. This thrilling new ballet brings one of literature&#8217;s most haunting tales to life through breathtaking dance, cinematic visuals, and unforgettable storytelling.</p></blockquote></figure>



<p>Experience the mystery, romance, and suspense of this timeless classic on October 31 and November 1, 2026, at the Fitzgerald Theater in Saint Paul.</p>



<p>Twin Cities Ballet Artistic Directors Denise Vogt and Rick Vogt—the visionary team behind <a href="https://first-avenue.com/performer/pink-floyds-the-wall-a-rock-ballet/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><em>Pink Floyd&#8217;s The Wall: A Rock Ballet</em></a> and <em><a href="https://first-avenue.com/performer/twin-cities-ballet-presents-romeo-juliet-rock-ballet/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Romeo &amp; Juliet: The Rock Ballet</a></em> to the music of Queen—have created a bold reimagining of <em>Phantom of the Opera</em> unlike anything ever seen on a Minnesota stage.</p>



<p>Featuring an original story adaptation, musical compilation, and artistic vision of Denise Vogt, the production blends the Vogts’ dynamic choreography with immersive multimedia and projection design by Peter Morrow to transport audiences into the Phantom&#8217;s shadowy world where beauty, passion, and obsession collide.</p>



<p><em>This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.</em></p>
