A ghostly dance

Get a wicked Halloween fright with “Butoh Beethoven – Eclipse,” running Oct. 26–31 at the Producer’s Club, Royal Theater.

Artist Vangeline performs the Japenese dance art butoh (“dance of darkness”) in which dancers first appear as humans — then as ghosts. In this solo piece, she’ll conjure the spirits of butoh founder Tatsumi Hijikata and composer Ludwig van Beethoven.

The award-winning show features cutting-edge lighting technology such as a fiber-optic costume by the French company Lumigram.

Celebrate Halloween week with the haunting art form and come dressed in your own costume to any show.

Beware, this performance could be a bit too much for younger children. Suggested minimum age is 14.

“Butoh Beethoven – Eclipse,” Oct. 26–31 at 8 pm. Tickets are $20 for general admission and $18 for students and seniors.

The Producer’s Club, Royal Theater (358 W. 44th St. in Midtown, www.brownpapertickets.com/event/2582224).
