Matthew Bourn's Swan Lake (Review)

My mum took me this year while it was on.... It was just mind-blowing.

A retelling of the original Swan Lake with almost the music from Tchaikovsky, this version has an all male swan assemble compared to that of the female swans.

The story revolves around a young prince who gets no affection from his mother, the queen, and wants to have freedom.

The choreography in this is just stunning and  the chemistry between the male lead swan and the prince is absolutely amazing.

The costumes for scenes are just incredible and it was an absolute treat to watch. The music is just second to none and you won't leave the theater disappointed.

I first learned about it from Billy Elliot, which had the first ever swan, Adam Cooper, playing a grown up Billy starring in the show and I am privileged to have been able to see it because it is stunning.
