Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty
Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty
After tackling The Nutcracker and Swan Lake, choreographer Matthew Bourne completes the set of Tchaikovsky's ballets with a production of Sleeping Beauty, performed by his New Adventures dance company at Sadler's Wells in London. Bourne's scenario turns the classic fairy tale upside down as he creates a supernatural love story across the decades, featuring vampires, fairies and decadent gothic opulence
Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty airs on BBC Four at 8:00 PM, Sunday 23 November. (Subtitles.)
