March 1, 2021 (New York, NY) – New York City Center President & CEO Arlene Shuler today announced Matthew Bourne’s New Adventures Festival, a month-long digital festival featuring four of the most beloved New Adventures productions filmed live at Sadler’s Wells Theatre, London.

Each one will be available on demand for 10 days. Three of the productions have never been seen on stage in New York.

This iconic and ground-breaking British dance-theater company is famous for telling stories with their own unique theatrical take. City Center is the longstanding New York home for New Adventures with past appearances including the cinematic production of The Red Shoes (2017), the gothic take on The Sleeping Beauty (2013), and most recently the return engagement of Bourne’s timeless Swan Lake (2020).

Digital access, with on demand viewing for a limited time, is $15 per production and goes on sale March 1 online at NYCityCenter.org. Access the full line-up with a Matthew Bourne Festival 4-Pack for $50 (and save $10). Each production will be available in rotation for 10 days, with a new title premiering every Friday.
