What's the story?

With inspirational director and choreographer Matthew Bourne at the helm, New Adventures has been telling stories and creating iconic and ground-breaking dance theatre since 1986. As a regular visitor to the Theatre Royal, the company always draws sell-out audiences.
As stated on their website, their company values indicate their passion to engage audiences at theatres, such as the Theatre Royal:
‘Our audiences are why we do what we do. Entertaining and engaging audiences is our passion. We proudly tour to more venues and give more performances each year than any other dance company in the UK. We strive to be widely accessible and welcoming to both our loyal and new audiences.’
Using the music of Prokofiev, Matthew Bourne’s Cinderella premiered in London in 1997.
Using the basis of the traditional fairy-tale story, Bourne sets his production of Cinderella in London during the Second World War, with Cinderella falling for a dashing young RAF pilot, before being parted by the horrors of the blitz.
