Elegant, dangerous, and unapologetically bold — Villainous explores the allure of power and the beauty of darkness. The show opens with the haunting cool of “Everybody Wants to Rule the World,” setting a tone of control and sophistication. From there, a daring fusion of Berlioz’s Symphonie Fantastique and Billie Eilish’s modern edge creates a twisted, mesmerizing soundscape. The haunting strains of Radiohead’s “Creep” expose the fragility beneath the façade, leading to a thunderous mashup of “Lux Aeterna” and Taylor Swift’s “I Did Something Bad” — a moment of raw confidence and chaos. The production closes with a triumphant return to Rule the World, reclaiming power in full cinematic fashion. Dark, sleek, and magnetic, Villainous is a modern symphony for the antihero.
