Matthew Bournes Dorian Grey
Why see Matthew Bournes Dorian Grey?
From the creator of Nutcracker!, Swan Lake & Edward Scissorhands NewAdventures presents Matthew Bourne’s Dorian Gray
Matthew Bourne has achieved worldwide success with his series of highly popular productions including Nutcracker!, Edward Scissorhands, The Car Man and Swan Lake.
When Bourne’s production of Oscar Wilde’s Dorian Gray premiered at the Edinburgh Festival in 2008 it became the most successful dance production ever staged at the Festival. It went on to have a critically acclaimed sell-out season at London’s Sadler’s Wells and has now embarked on a major international tour.
This sensational new production, from the UK’s most popular dance/theatre company, turns Oscar Wilde’s gothic fable into a darkly seductive dance theatre event from master storyteller Matthew Bourne. The destructive power of beauty, the blind pursuit of pleasure and the darkness and corruption that hide beneath the charming façade are themes of Wilde’s cautionary tale that have never been more timely.
Suitable for ages 14+ and contains adults themes of a sexual nature.
