New Adventures is an iconic and ground-breaking British dance-theatre company, famous for telling stories with a unique theatrical twist. For over 30 years Matthew Bourne and New Adventures have delighted, inspired and nurtured people of all ages and backgrounds: audiences, artists and the next generation. We create world class productions and engaging projects, reaching thousands worldwide every year.
Sir Matthew Bourne OBE is widely hailed as the UK’s most popular and successful choreographer and director.
For over 30 years he has been creating and directing dance for musicals, theatre, film as well as his own highly successful, award-winning companies.
Matthew is the creator of the world’s longest running ballet production, and has been recognised by numerous international awards. He was knighted in the Queen’s New Year Honours 2016 for services to dance, and awarded the Queen Elizabeth II Coronation Award – one of the most coveted honours in the world of dance – in recognition of his outstanding services to the art of ballet.
On a personal level – Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake has been a major inspiration. Just recently had the honor to watch Car Man and was blown away.
The theatre, actors/dancers, and New Adventures productions has been hit hard during the Pandemic, as have many theatres and museums.
I’ve personally donated to their Dance School to help these ‘kids’ be able to keep learning dance. Also because it’s fun they call their Dance School – Swan School!
