Dragon Quest ballet began in 1995. Its first appearance at Japan Expo in Paris in 2019, one of the world’s largest celebrations of Japanese culture, attracted considerable attention. Its sweeping music and powerful staging recreate the game’s world, captivating a wide audience beyond ballet fans with an entertainment ballet unlike any other. This release captures the emotion of the Tokyo performance held in 2020, more than twenty-five years after its premiere.

Dramatic sets and vibrant costumes bring the adventure to life. Familiar melodies are performed live by an orchestra, combining music from Dragon Quest I through VI with original music written for the ballet. The story is original to the ballet, with vivid battles and an emotional finale.

The White Hero leaves the castle to rescue a princess abducted by the Demon King and the Black Hero. Wounded by attacking monsters, he follows a mysterious old man’s guidance and meets three companions. Together they head towards the Demon Palace for the decisive battle. Can the White Hero rescue the princess? What secret links the White Hero and the Black Hero?
