The show, the fashion, the energy and the poetry of movements.

The creator of the show spoke to the ECHO ahead of a stage show coming to the Empire
'The creator of Peaky Blinders has spoken about how Liverpool influenced the show during the filming.
Steven Knight, the creator and writer of Peaky Blinders, told the ECHO how an "incredible" part of Liverpool where they were filming for the first season helped create the "theme and tone" for the whole show.
Speaking to the ECHO following the announcement of the Peaky Blinders stage show set to come to the Liverpool Empire Theatre next year, Steven spoke about how the Stanley Dock and Tobacco Warehouse area influenced the series.
He told the ECHO: "In series one we were in an incredible place at the Liverpool docks, filming at the warehouses [on Stanley Dock].
"You felt dwarfed by the dimensions of the buildings. It was an amazing building that really helped us to establish the theme and tone of the show.
"It was grungy. It was working class. It was everything Peaky Blinders."
Speaking about the show, which will combine dance by the Rambert dance company with his own Shelby story lines, Steven said it first came about after the company featured on the show during season four, and he got talking to a director there about turning it into a "larger show."
He said: "Within the TV show music is always really important. Among the working class men at the time there was an absolute willingness to move into dance.
"That's what I've tried to bring to the stage with this show.
"The other thing I found incredible is the way Rambert depict violence and fights, which are so vicious and so well done."
The theatre show Peaky Blinders: The Redemption of Thomas Shelby will come to Liverpool next year.
Adapted for the stage by Peaky Blinders’ creator Steven Knight, the show will tour stages across the UK from September 13, 2024.
Having included an exclusive plot and characters never seen on screen, Steven Knight opens the story in the trenches of The Somme in 1916 to tell a personal story of post-war industrial Birmingham, where the Shelby family navigate the decisions that determine their fate and Tommy is intoxicated by mysterious newcomer, Grace.

Adapted for the stage by Peaky Blinders’ creator Steven Knight, the show will return to stages across the UK from September 13, 2024.

While Tommy is building his empire, Grace is operating as an undercover agent for Special Branch on a mission to get close to the heart of Tommy’s gang.
The stage adaptation includes dancers and a soundtrack from a live on-stage band. Having written and adapted the production, Steven Knight said: "I’m absolutely thrilled the Peaky/Rambert collaboration has been such a resounding success.
"So many people came to see the show and so many of them were new to live dance, which is why we all wanted to do this. By popular demand the show is back on the road in the UK in places the first tour didn’t reach. Next, it’s Europe, then the world.”

I saw the Rambert Contemporary Dance company perform this in summer 2010 at Sadlers Wells in London it was such an amazing spectacle it had to be shared.
