Matthew Bourne’s Sleeping Beauty has returned to the Dublin’s Bord Gais Energy Theatre, following his hugely successful run of Swan Lake in 2014.
Matthew Bourne’s haunting new scenario is a gothic tale for all ages; the traditional tale of good vs. evil and rebirth is turned upside-down, creating a supernatural love story that even the passage of time itself cannot hinder.
Guests that attended the first night of the production included Love/Hate’s Aoibhinn McGinnity, RTÉ’s Blaithnaid Treacy, Siobhan O’Connor, radio presenter Robbie Fogarty as well as Alison Canavan and Dylan Townsend.

This dazzling production has won the hearts of thousands and smashed box office records across the UK and at Sadler’s Wells.
Its USA premiere in 2013 prompted Joan Acolella of The New Yorker to hail Bourne as “the most popular choreographer of theatrical dance in the Western world.”
