OutKast's more subdued member Big Boi is set to premiere his ballet in Atlanta on April 10 with six performances in total. Titled big, the co-production along with the Atlanta Ballet will be choreographed by Lauri Stallings, and feature new music by Big Boi mixed in with standards like Verdi’s La Traviata.

OutKast pals, Khujo Goodie, Sleepy Brown, as well as Scar, Konkrete, Big Rube, C-Bone and Rock D will join the cast, while DJ Swift will act as music director.

About the production, Stallings said: "big is the place, event, and experience where we leave our inhibitions at the door, and move forward. big is an example of possibilities… a place for the senses to open, and be lifted, setting a new height for creativity and awareness towards ourselves and the people sitting right next to us."

big will debut at the Fabulous Fox Theater on April 10 and run through April 13.
