No, you’re not going to see a Prince impersonator get down to “Batdance.”

But similarly to how The Florida Orchestra (which is not involved in this show) has been playing the live score to the “Harry Potter” films over the last few years, a 50-piece touring ensemble will perform Danny Elfman’s epic score to the 1989 flick starring Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson.

Fans are encouraged to arrive at Morsani Hall dressed as their favorite DC hero or villain and will probably reminisce about a time when DC films weren’t underwhelming year after friggin’ year.

Tickets to see ‘Batman 1989′ in concert inside Morsani Hall at David A. Straz Center for the Performing Arts ( 1010 N Macinnes Pl.) on Saturday, Jan. 20 start at $35.
