Matthew Bourne’s  audacious, rule-breaking reinvention of  Tchaikovsky’s  masterpiece caused a sensation when it premiered almost 30 years ago.  It has now become the most successful dance theatre production of all time, creating new audiences and inspiring generations of young dancers. In celebration of that ongoing impact,  Swan Lake  will take flight once more in a major new revival  for the next generation of dancers, and for audiences who will experience it for the very first time.

Thrilling, bold, witty and emotive, this genre-defining event is still best known for replacing the female corps-de-ballet with a menacing male ensemble, which shattered convention, turning tradition on its head.

First staged at Sadler’s Wells  in London in 1995 ,  Matthew Bourne’s  Swan Lake   took the dance theatre world by storm  becoming the longest   running  full-length dance classic  in  the  West End and on Broadway .   It has  since  been performed  across the globe,  collecting over thirty international accolades including the Olivier Award for Best New Dance Production and three Tony Awards for Best Director of a Musical, Best Choreography and Best Costume Design.
