Tampa is already home to a producer (Wally Clark) who’s made a beat tape inspired by “Naruto,” and now fans of the Japanese anime series can get their fix symphonically.

Fresh off a European tour, this show features a two-hour, subtitled, feature film featuring segments from the first 220 original episodes of the series—all soundtracked by a live orchestra playing the most iconic songs and themes.

Tickets to Naruto: The Symphonic Experience happening tonight, March 20 at Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater are still available and start at $39.
