Matthew Bourne created a revolutionary interpretation of Swan Lake for Adventures in Motion Pictures at Sadler’s Wells, London, in 1995. The swans were bare-chested men dancing in shorts resembling feathers. The Prince falls in love with one of the male swans. This striking take on the most famous of the Romantic ‘white’ ballets won many awards and continues to be performed all over the world. The original cast included Adam Cooper, Scott Ambler and Fiona Chadwick.
