We follow the internationally celebrated choreographer Sir Matthew Bourne as he reimagines his popular work Nutcracker! for Autumn 2021.
Taking Tchaikovsky鈥檚 ballet and in a set heavily influenced by the lavish Hollywood musicals of the 1930s, Bourne鈥檚 production is a spectacle as it journeys between Dr. Dross鈥� drab Orphanage, through a shimmering, ice-skating winter wonderland, and into the mouth-watering Sweetieland full of dancing sugar coated goodies.
Complete with newly-refreshed delectable sets and costumes, combined with sparkling new choreography, Luke Whitlock explores with Bourne how this reinvention comes about.
From preparations way ahead of the opening night of the tour, and then heading to London to light up the Christmas Season, the creative process for Bourne doesn鈥檛 stop.
