an exciting re-imagining of the classic

Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake returns with a fresh look for the 21st century. 

“Spectacular…can make you laugh, break your heart and dazzle you.” -- Los Angeles Times 

“Stunning! Flawless, invigorating choreography… Don’t let it fly away without experiencing it.” -- Entertainment Weekly 

Retaining the iconic elements of the original production loved by millions around the world, Matthew Bourne and award-winning designers Lez Brotherston (set & costumes) and Paule Constable (lighting) will create an exciting reimagining of the classic New Adventures production. 

Thrilling, audacious, witty, and emotive, this Swan Lake is perhaps still best known for replacing the female corps-de-ballet with a menacing male ensemble, which shattered conventions, turned tradition upside down, and took the dance world by storm. 

Collecting over 30 international accolades including an Olivier Award in the UK and three Tonys® on Broadway, Matthew Bourne’s powerful interpretation of Tchaikovsky’s masterpiece is a passionate and contemporary Swan Lake for our times. 

“Genius. We’re left with the sensation that we’ve experienced artistry beyond our imaginings.” -- L.A. Daily News 

“The show that changed the dance landscape FOREVER” -- Observer 

“The world’s favorite ballet is still a marvel. SPELLBINDING” -- Independent
