Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake

Date: Tuesday, Mar 12 2019 - Saturday, Mar 16 2019
Venue: Hippodrome

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

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 re-imagining of the classic production.

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 perhaps still best known for replacing the female corps-de-ballet with a menacing male ensemble, which turned tradition upside down and took the dance world by storm.
