Artiste: New Adventures

Thirty years after its original production, Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake makes its return to the stage championed by an impressive ensemble of dance artists from Bourne’s own company New Adventures.

In The Midnight Bell, Sir Matthew Bourne has produced some of his best choreography, loose and free-flowing but tense with desire and mixed with dread.

Bourne has created an extraordinary legacy.  His Swan Lake will remain relevant for generations to come.

Arielle Smith talks frankly about expectations, levelling the playing field, her passion for the art form and the importance of music as a starting point.
