Will Bozier and Liam Mower perform in Act 2 of Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake.

Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake returns for its 30th anniversary with a 2024/25 UK tour.

First seen in 1995, Matthew Bourne’s iconic Swan Lake was revived and re-made in 2019 and filmed by Illuminations for cinema screenings and for Sky Arts. In his re-imagining of the classic tale, Bourne replaced the female ensemble with more menacing male swans creating a darker ambiance for the production.

Noted for smashing traditional gender roles, Bourne’s interpretation of Tchaikovsky’s ballet is highly regarded as a fresh take on the piece for the 21st century. The dancers tell the tale of a lonely prince, with a distant mother and not a friend in the world. As the prince yearns for freedom, it comes to him in an unlikely way, through a swan.

The on-screen version seen here was recorded during the show’s run at Sadler’s Wells. Ross MacGibbon acted as screen director and Lucie Conrad as producer.
