Bourne’s Swan Lake to head back out on tour

Matthew Bourne’s sensational all male ballet, Swan Lake, is taking to the waters again in 2014.

It’s heading to (appropriately) Wycombe Swan next May and tickets are now on sale.

Bourne’s Swan Lake is one of his most popular productions and tickets sell out.

Premiered at Sadler’s Wells in 1995, the choreographer’s triumphant modern re-interpretation of Swan Lake turned tradition upside down and took the dance world by storm.

Bourne blends dance, humour and spectacle with extravagant, award-winning designs by Lez Brotherston, to create a provocative and powerful production that has since become a classic in its own right.

Liz Koops, chief executive for Broadway Entertainment Group, who has produced the show globally for eight years, said: “We are delighted to be bringing Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake back for its fifth international tour.

“Its unrivalled success is a testament to its unique storytelling and iconic beauty”.

The Swan is the only theatre in this area staging the production on the 2014 tour.
