Step into a striking collision of myth and modernity with Mere Mortals, a bold, immersive ballet experience from the San Francisco Ballet. Choreographed by Aszure Barton with a live, electrifying score by Floating Points, this visionary work reimagines the story of Pandora through the lens of our AI-driven world—grappling with questions of creation, consequence, and what it means to be human in an age of rapid technological change. Performed with the San Francisco Ballet Orchestra, the piece unfolds as a fully sensory journey, blending movement, electronic sound, and cutting-edge visuals into something at once futuristic and deeply primal.

Commissioned for Artistic Director Tamara Rojo’s inaugural season, Mere Mortals returns as a genre-defying fusion of contemporary ballet and festival energy—equal parts spectacle and meditation. With Groupmuse Nights Out discounted tickets, this is your chance to experience a performance that pushes boundaries and lingers long after the final moment. Expect intensity, innovation, and a few surprises along the way (including flashing lights and amplified sound)—all in service of a work that dares to ask big questions and delivers an unforgettable night at the ballet. ✨
