Description

Newspaper reviews from Nottingham Post and Newark Advertiser for Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty from New Adventures.

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.’
Premiering in 2013 and using the music of Tchaikovsky, Matthew Bourne’s re-imagined gothic fantasy was the fastest selling production in the company’s history.
The glowing reviews here from the Nottingham Post and Newark Advertiser describe the show as “an eye-opener for visitors to the Theatre Royal” and describing the entire production as “a visual feast”.
