Reimagined with a darker edge and inspired by Alfred Hitchcock, witness a ballet being turned upside down by Matthew Bourne.
The Making of Swan Lake
Backstage-pass, Dance, Ballet
Matthew Bourne’s groundbreaking reinvention of Tchaikovsky’s ''Swan Lake,'' which transformed the world of dance, is captured on film for the first time. Famous for its all-male corps de ballet, the 1995 production became Broadway’s longest-running full-length dance classic.
In this cinematic adaptation, Bourne and his award-winning collaborators—Lez Brotherston (set and costume design) and Paule Constable (lighting design)—continue to push artistic boundaries, delivering a thrilling reimagining of their original vision.
Liam Mower’s emotionally charged portrayal of the Prince, paired with his intense and dangerous romance with Will Bozier’s Swan, ensures this rendition of Swan Lake remains as powerful and captivating as ever.
