Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake returns for its 30th anniversary with a 2024/25 UK tour. This audacious reinvention of Tchaikovsky's masterpiece caused a sensation when it premiered almost 30 years ago and has since become the most successful dance theatre production of all time. In celebration of that ongoing impact, Swan Lake will take flight once more in this major revival for the next generation, visiting 19 venues over 29 weeks.

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.

The intense, visceral choreography in this edge-of-your-seat production unleashes the emotional force of Arthur Miller’s famous play about the 17th-century Salem witch trials. Tender, devastating duets are followed by intoxicating solos and wild, feverish ensemble numbers as the tight-knit village community unravels into chaos.

The Crucible

Dancing like a glacier... Larsen C. A huge, 10,000-year-old ice shelf in Antarctica. Twice the size of Wales. Moving so slowly you can’t even notice. It is as if the pulse of its movement is absorbed by space and time.

Ten performers electrify the stage, their complex and percussive footwork (in sneakers) mixing with drums and electronic music to create a live soundtrack. Beginning with steps familiar from street dance, clubbing and hip-hop battles, the dancing intensifies, accelerating into wild, euphoric movement that connects with the legacy and memory of dances from the past. These traditional steps, frozen in time, resistant to change, are transformed in a vibrant and rebellious exploration of identity and equality.

We follow Clara on a journey through the worlds of her imagination, as she drifts off to sleep on Christmas Eve. She meets the Nutcracker Prince, takes on the larger-than-life Rat King, sees snowflakes dance in the Land of Ice and Snow, and is whisked into the luscious Land of Sweets by the Sugar Plum Fairy!

An evening of mixed repertoire pieces investigates various poetic possibilities, universal rhythms and cycles performed by Major's world-class dancers. This is a captivating evening of dance, of connection between internal and external worlds - of non-duality - all set within a whirling maelstrom of movement, sound and light.

There'll be mushrooms, insects and secrets in store. As the plants watch dancing ants at play, more peculiar becomes the day. Fine and dandy everything appears, till the winds shift south, and the moon clouds clear…

Peculiar Plants and The Ants Who Dance

The players take the stage with attitude, fancy footwork and fast ball changes in their quest to claim victory over their patriarch nemeses.
