Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty - FIVE BIG CREATIVE TAKEAWAYS

Believe the hype! I take a look at what we can learn from how Sir Matthew Bourne creates a show.

Matthew Bourne's Sleeping Beauty is a dark, Gothic and sexy piece. In this quickfire episode I look at what we can learn as creatives from the show with these 5 Big Creative Takeaways 

  1. Get The Story Right For You

  2. Tell The Hell Out Of Your Story

  3. Invest in Your Future Talent

  4. Sex is not the same as Porn

  5. Respect traditions but don’t be limited by them 

The show gives new impetus and life to the age old story and 130 year old ballet. I saw it at a packed Mayflower Theatre in Southampton and loved it!

New Adventures' Sleeping Beauty toured the UK until May 2023. To find out more use this link:
