On 15 November 2019 The Dance Section of the Critics’ Circle announced the nominations for the 20th National Dance Awards and we are delighted to share that New Adventures has been nominated for 4 awards across 3 categories.
Matthew Bourne for Romeo + Juliet nominated for Best Modern Choreography
Cordelia Braithwaite as Juliet in Romeo + Juliet nominated for Outstanding Female Performance (Modern)
The Royal Ballet's Matthew Ball as the Swan/Stranger in Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake nominated for Outstanding Male Performance (Modern)
Liam Mower as the Prince in Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake nominated for Outstanding Male Performance (Modern)
The winners will be announced at a lunchtime ceremony to be held in Central London on Wednesday, 19 February 2020, marking the 20th Anniversary for the National Dance Awards.
The event will also play host to the De Valois Award for Outstanding Achievement for which there are no prior nominations.
Once again, the short-listed represent the remarkable diversity of dance in the United Kingdom with considerably more than half of the UK-based nominees originally coming from overseas.
