“The UK's most popular and most unclassiafiable dance company”
SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE

“Matthew Bourne is a whirlwind. He’s a dynamo, a powerhouse, a force of nature. He has created the busiest ballet company on earth and turned Britain into the worlds leading exporter of dance theatre”
THE SPECTATOR

“Fills me with optimism for the future of dance”
THE TELEGRAPH

“In an era when dance companies are supposed to fight for funding and justify their existence, New Adventures can make an outstanding case for itself”
THE TIMES

“Ballet haters should be prepared to have their prejudices blown away. This is real theatre worth traveling miles to see”
THE INDEPENDENT

“If anyone has done more to make classical ballet a truly popular art form than Matthew Bourne, we have yet to meet them.”
BLOOMBERG

“Bourne has established an unequalled track record for finding fresh, funny, individual talent. He may bring back his productions year after year, but they look different every season”
THE GUARDIAN

“No contemporary dance troupe in this country has ever achieved this kind of scope”
THE TIMES

“It’s this degree of audience engagement that indicates , along with box-office figures , that Bourne has a knack for drawing people in, hearts and minds, to what’s unfolding on stage”
THE SCOTTISH HERALD

“New Adventures is attracting new audiences in unprecedented numbers, drawn to their dramatic way of combining film imagery and elements of musical comedy, theatre and ballet”
WASHINGTON TIMES

“Welcome to the Bourne supremacy...the success is undeniable. His shows capture International audiences by telling classic stories with a twist - cheeky, accessible but with a powerful emotional undertow. Swan Lake's feral male swans and the sugar-rush fantasia of Nutcracker! have become icons of British modern dance”
THE SUNDAY TIMES

“Matthew Bourne has brought dance to the masses like nobody else”
THE SCOTSMAN

“Without doubt the most commercially successful choreographer this country has produced”
THE TIMES
