DVD Synopsis
Director and choreographer Matthew Bourne's acclaimed and groundbreaking production of Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake (which advances the story into the present day and features a supporting cast of male swans) is preserved in this home video release, which records the production with its original London cast. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
Editorial Review of DVD
This DVD from NVC Arts records Matthew Bourne's radical reworking of the famous ballet Swan Lake. The disc offers a standard full-frame transfer. English soundtracks are rendered in both Dolby Digital 5.1 and PCM Stereo. Although there are no subtitles, a collectible booklet helps explain the story performed in the ballet. Anyone with an interest in or appreciation for modern dance will surely savor this fascinating disc, but there is little here to win over those who have no interest in this particular art. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide
