One of the things I love most about this production is how animalistic the swans' movements are. They really lean into choreography that evokes the way animals really use their bodies.
Swans have this floaty, romantic image, but are hefty, aggressive animals. They've been known to drown all the ducks on a pond to claim the territory as exclusively their own.
I took my rather reluctant adult daughter to see this, her first ballet and my first Matthew Bourne. At the end we all stood in ovation, I turned to look at my daughter still sat down and crying her eyes out, speechless and so moved, what an introduction to ballet. That must be the reaction every choreographer wants.
Wow. The choreography was created by a true genius. And the dancers? Breathtaking. I didn't know it was possible to portray such violence in dance but here we are, I was shivering.
I watch the last few minutes of this whenever I need a good cry. The Queen's facial expression and the sheer physical desperation of her grief when she finds her son dead never fails to make me sob.
I’m with you. I can NEVER watch the finale of Swan Lake - happy or sad - Without sobbing my heart out. A couple of years ago was sitting beside someone in the theatre who was annoyed that she had forgotten her tissues. I told her I had just been to the loos to stock up (!!) and we both sat there happily blubbing!!!
Sad ending or happy I ALWAYS sob. Sat next to a lady once who was being annoyed with herself. When I asked her what was wrong she said that she had forgotten to bring any tissues. I said so had I but had got a load of loo roll so we both sat there together at the finale sobbing our little hearts out lol
I'v always loved the ballet Swan Lake and this recreation from Matthew Bourne is just as beautiful. The ending here even though violent is also very tender. As always I was sobbing my heart out! Tchaikovsky's music and this finale gets me everytime...just beautiful!!
After watching multiple variants of how swan lake ends this is the one that fills the beats of the music best and tells the clearest story. All the movements are incredibly lifelike and so visually compelling, especially the emotions being conveyed. The ending is so sad but the thought of them being together in death makes it bittersweet.
I've loved this music since early youth. (I'm 70 now.) But never have I seen it so truthfully or fully expressed in dance as this version. Bourne's choreography has been revived again and again and, while Adam Cooper's original Swan will haunt me until my dying day, this more recent version also delivers the goods.
Professor Piotr Tchaikovsky, master of counterpoint, one of thre finest orchestrators in history, with that extra ingredient, creativity. This work complements Tchaikovsky's genius unfailingly.
I saw this live at the Sadler's Wells in London two years ago. Stunning. The orchestra played astoundingly well and the dancers were at the top of their game. I wept at the end as it packed an emotional wallop that I just didn't see coming. For me this is the definitive version of Swan Lake and could really not see any other.
Just back from seeing it at the theatre for the 3rd time today, breathtaking, emotional, I had tears pouring down my face, so beautifully done. The power and grace was phenomenal, it really gets to your emotions.One of the finest shows I've ever seen.
and me, via Adam Cooper’s joyous leap, best film ending ever (Billy Elliott), this is wonderful, I’m now totally hooked (and have a box of tissues ready to cry into)
The music Tchaikowsky got to this final scene is freakingly beautiful. The orchestration is colorful and the brasses are the cupnof cake, such a drama, such a a power!
I had the pleasure of working on this show in Sydney many years ago, a different production to this but still the same beautiful magic. Great cast and crew, and I was very sad when it was our last night.
I had the great pleasure of working on this beautiful show in Sydney a few years ago as a follow spot operator and my last cue was on the dying prince, a very powerful and moving moment. After a few shows I really got very sad at having to do the end cue....so sad but beautiful.
What a brilliant way to rewrite the very famous Swan Lake in a shocking and non-traditional way, that's beauty of an art, in just 13 minutes, fantasy, reality, universal, a drama full of bold contents, and the unexpected ending, wow! Connecting audience from different background, the first impression, and the lasting impression! Love the stage setting, the shadow... the simplicity of white color speaks more and beyond....
Wow, wow wow, I would never have expected to see such an interpretation. It's beautifully done, but sure does demand that you rethink this classic. I had a walk on role of Nureyev's Swan Lake back in the early 70's (I was 12 at the time) and never would I imagine such a reinterpretation. Well done!
Imagine you're trying to sleep, but a group of blokes dressed as ominous chickens slide out from under your bed and start aggressively but seductively dancing around you to no music
philipmah Very late to reply but, no one is ever too old to dance! The best part of dance is, after all the creativity and glorious artistry, challenging one's own body. To teach your toes to slide across the floor as suptile (gosh, I am so sorry I have forgotten this word in English!) as fingers, to watch your extension go higher, your turn out increase, and oh when your arms and hands finally work! I write this lying on a heating pad after having gone a bit too rough rolling out my lower back muscles before trying to follow along with Tamsra Rojo's live ballet class. I've danced more this week than I have in years, yet my body, at 55 and largely unused for the ladt 10 years is not up for it. No matter how much it grumbles, hurts, refuses to extend or perform a full plié in second (first is out of the question) I will never stop dancing. And since I've already written far too much, I shall dive in further: I started ballet when I was 26-27 years old. I am not properly trained, but Inam very focused on technique as I know this prevents injuries, IF one warms up properly! Please don't anyone ever think they are too old to dance! Just because one may well never learn proper choreography or have feet like Tamara Rojo or be made of rubber like Ed Watson, does not mean one is not a proper dancer! I am a horrid dancer, but I AM a dancer where it matters the most: in the sense of belonging and freedom and absolute athleticism and physical strength it gives me--and I want that for you too, and everyone who thinks they may wish to dance. You will find loads of tutorials on UA-cam. Be careful you are learning proper foot and hip placement. Try Claudia Dean, she is brilliant, as is Kathryn Morgan. Go dance, as Billy Eliott said, its like flying. You likely have time these days as the whole world is temporarily shut down just now. We have a duty to keep our spirits up during this pandemic; what better way than by feeling our days with creativity and artistic freedom? Be eccentric in your free days and relish the joy of complete freedom from judgement snd responsibility. We don't have to "pass" into the constraints of social acceptance, but we can fly in absolute abandon through these days of social distancing. Be free, be a dancer, be safe, be healthy, and make sure you are careful about technique when you first dance! Good, robust health everyone!

What a thriller!! Breathtaking dynamics.." Pure swan skin! My absolute Swan Lake favorite.. Thank you very much for hiring.. I love Matthew Bourne's choreography.🌹
A sublime, unique, and wonderful artistic and psychological creation, based very seriously in finding the deepest truth between human beings, by someone really competent in music, ballet and coreography. A most noble portraying of a really true love, that defeats completely conventions and death itself.
Was für ein Thriller!! Atemberaubende Dynamik.."Schwanenhaut" pur! Mein absoluter Swan Lake Favorit..Danke sehr für´s Einstellen..Ich liebe die Choreografien von Matthew Bourne..
I watched the performance in Wycombe this evening and I was the only one who cried out of the whole class...it’s way too moving for me and the music just kills me...it’s so sad...I adore that the swan is male and the prince fell in love with him...
If that's your interpretation, you are welcome to it. I see the Swan as the wildness that is the rightful part of the Prince, but has been suppressed by the unrelenting rituals of the court.
My mom and dad hated me.. I would have loved to be a ballet dancer but when I asked for dancing lessons I was told they would not waste money on a worthless piece of shit like me... I was 6 years old....
@@mariolumbanraja8276 I mean, Tchaikovsky himself was gay and hat severe mental health issues because he couldn't be out at the time. I suspect he'd be quite happy to see a gay prince/swan adaptation.
The beauty and grace brings tears to my eyes... and thats a hard thing to do because I have been through hell and hardened. Watching Ballet calms my soul.
I remember watching the original London production in 1996/97 when it was new and daring. Unforgettable, overwhelming experience. When the swans appeared under the bed in this final scene the audience gasped in amazement! Then several years later in St. Petersburg an elegant “classic” staging with silly little girls in tutus could not have been more anticlimactic.
The sheer muscular beauty of the male dancer is showcased with savage movement yet grace. 🌟 A welcomed movement that is taking the male dancer from merely support and gymnastics ❤
Svidja mi se koreografija.Ovo je divno.U sustini,to je prava koreografija za "Labudovo jezero".P.I.Cajkovski,mislim,zna se.Nije ni bitno.BALET JE SUPER.
Beautiful. The physicality of the choreography must be exhausting. How many calories a day did the dancers eat to stay active. I was exhausted just watching. Really beautiful. Kudos to all the company.
I’ve never heard the story of swan lake. The only production I have watched is the nutcracker and the sleeping beauty. This production was breathtaking. The set design was good, the costume design is very simple but it is intricate. This showed the real way swans act. Swans are very combative, mean, and they over all are just assholes. They got the movements of the swans perfectly down to the behavior before they strike. The leads were very good at telling the story. We saw in this act that one needs the other but both were hesitant to come together as one. So we see the polar opposite behaviors. The struggle they have to overcome them and see them as useful. The end when the two become one. Perfect
This ending is so incredibly beautiful and very touching. The prince is clearly mad but still loves his swan who also loves him back . The queen realises her mistake and her hesrt breaks as the two lovers are reunited in death. Stunning and as a gay man it hits me harder.
Ich liebe diese Version über alles…es ist Hammer Gay Swan Lake…die Ausstrahlung Tänzerisch zwischen dem Prinzen und der männlichen Part von Odette isr der Hammer…allerdings versteh ich nicht warum die anderen Schwäne das liebenden töten …aber Tänzerisch ist das ganze einfach mega toll….

Why are you surprised by the beautiful orchestration? It’s Tchaikovsky’s original orchestration. He is considered to be one of the greatest orchestrators of all time.
One of the things I love most about this production is how animalistic the swans' movements are. They really lean into choreography that evokes the way animals really use their bodies.
Also, the unclothed male torso allows us to see the musculature of the "swans" and their power. Great choice in costume, esp for this scene.
Agree with both of you!
Swans have this floaty, romantic image, but are hefty, aggressive animals. They've been known to drown all the ducks on a pond to claim the territory as exclusively their own.
Those were supposed to be SWANS? 😂
Swans are aggressive ! I wouldn't want to get too close to one especially in breeding season.
This is a pretty accurate portrayal.
I took my rather reluctant adult daughter to see this, her first ballet and my first Matthew Bourne. At the end we all stood in ovation, I turned to look at my daughter still sat down and crying her eyes out, speechless and so moved, what an introduction to ballet. That must be the reaction every choreographer wants.
I bawled to, it was so moving. I was shocked at my own response
The use of light in this production is so unexpected and honestly kind of stunning.
The shadows of the mean swans are really creepy!! 😱 But it’s awesome, because it’s as if the poor sick prince is having fever and nightmares
The lighting designer was Rick Fisher,a truly remarkable designer and a wonderful man to work with.
Breathtaking
Wow. The choreography was created by a true genius. And the dancers? Breathtaking. I didn't know it was possible to portray such violence in dance but here we are, I was shivering.

The entire last 2 minutes is just sheer sadness on so many levels.
