Swan Lake

on BBC Two England

Director and choreographer Matthew Bourne's challenging reworking of Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake has become a hit in London's West End. The score remains the same, but the famous corps de ballet of swans is now danced by men. The music is performed by the New London Orchestra conducted by David Lloyd Jones.

Life for the Prince is lonely as he carries out his regal duties and watches his mother, the Queen, flirt with her handsome courtiers. She also dislikes his girlfriend.
