Aeterno Elementum comes to Seattle!
On November 4th and 5th, 2011 Ara’Kus Productions will bring heavy metal opera to the stage at the Broadway Performance Hall in downtown Seattle. Aeterno Elementum combines dark, atmospheric, story-driven performance theater with Ara’Kus’ signature style of symphonic, operatic heavy metal to create an experience that is greater than the sum of it’s parts.
Aeterno Elementum tells the story of a world not entirely unlike our own which has descended into darkness, and of it’s inevitable and violent purification. Featuring fire dancing, aerial performance, acrobatic martial artists, fully armed and armored knights in large scale combat, and a cast of highly talented actors and musicians of all types, this is a spectacle that must be witnessed in order to be fully understood.
On each night, doors open at 7:00pm, show begins at 8:00pm. Tickets will be $25 online and at the door, but seats are limited, so we recommend purchasing early.
Register here to receive vouchers for discounted tickets and regular updates about the show and everything Ara’Kus.
Thanks again from the Ara’Kus Productions crew. We’ll see you in Seattle.

Steff Metal Reviews Aeterno Elementum
Steff Metal has written a review of Aeterno Elementum. Enjoy!
[...] Aeterno Elementum tells the story of a world descended into darkness – the rise and fall of mankind and our violent purification. While that sounds like the plot of every other symphonic metal album out there, not every other symphonic metal album comes with an entire performance piece – where actors, martial artists, armored knights, aerialists, fire dancers and a myriad of musicians add a life and body to the music. Just look at the ArA’KuS cast! [...]
