FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE (April 24, 2025) – Ensemble Arts Philly presents NARUTO: The Symphonic Experience – a live concert event that brings the beloved anime series to life through the power of orchestral music – at the Miller Theater on May 13 & May 14, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. This two-hour event features a film montage of iconic scenes from over 220 episodes, synchronized to a live orchestra performing Toshio Masuda's original score.

"We are excited to bring a new dimension of storytelling to Ensemble Arts’ vast array of programming, delivering an exhilaratingly exclusive and transportive experience for Philadelphians," said Frances Egler, Vice President of Theatrical Programming and Presentations. "Naruto: The Symphonic Experience honors the incredible music and narrative of the manga, offering fans a concrete way to connect with this animated world."

The orchestra performs not only Masuda's unforgettable soundtrack but also the series' most famous openings and endings, inviting the audience to sing along with the music they love. This interactive element draws fans closer to Naruto, celebrating the powerful, shared bond the music creates.

This event is truly exclusive: the film and musical montage created for NARUTO: The Symphonic Experience can only be seen at these shows. Audiences will have a unique opportunity to sing, laugh, cheer, and feel the excitement of seeing their favorite characters on screen, experiencing the full range of emotions that Naruto inspires.

With Masuda's dynamic soundtrack, blending rock, pop, and traditional Japanese instruments like the Shakuhachi and Shamisen, the live music elevates each scene's impact, immersing the audience in Naruto's story. Whether you're a devoted fan or new to the series, NARUTO: The Symphonic Experience offers an exclusive, unforgettable way to celebrate Naruto's epic journey and music in a truly one-of-a-kind setting.
