Early Adventures

Matthew Bourne is hailed as the United Kingdom’s most popular and successful choreographer-director. He is the creator of the world’s longest-running ballet production, a five-time Olivier Award winner, and the only British director to have won the Tony Award for both Best Choreographer and Best Director of a Musical.

Bourne returns to his roots in Early Adventures, a program of hit pieces that launched his career and saw the birth of the style, wit and sheer entertainment that his company New Adventures brought to Swan Lake, The Car Man, Edward Scissorhands, and Sleeping Beauty. With designs by longtime collaborator Lez Brotherston, Early Adventures is a United States premiere and forms part of the company’s 30th anniversary celebrations.
