The winner of over 30 international awards, sell-out seasons on the West End, Broadway and throughout the world, this groundbreaking reinvention of ballet’s most loved classic comes to Melbourne after a much-lauded revival season last year at London’s Sadler’s Wells – the same theatre where it exploded onto the scene in 1995.
This current production includes a number of changes made by director and choreographer Matthew Bourne, the most since the show opened on Broadway in 1998. It is perhaps best known for its menacing pack of male wild swans, which replaced the traditional fluttering female corps de ballet.
