The essentials
Established in 2001 by Matthew Bourne, New Adventures emerged from the legacy of Adventures in Motion Pictures. The company is known for transforming classic and contemporary narratives into dynamic, story-driven performances that resonate with diverse audiences. The Sadler’s Wells Theatre in London remains a central home, where the company stages major seasons and conjugates new works with long-standing favorites.

This distinctive approach invites audiences into immersive worlds that blend music, design, and character-driven drama—often redefining what dance can convey on stage.
