Matthew Bourne’s New Adventure Project

Arts Centre Melbourne, Matthew Bourne’s New Adventures & Re:Bourne (the charitable arm of New Adventures) are working towards a major creative project that will culminate in a one week season at Arts Centre Melbourne’s State Theatre in Autumn 2017.
Mixing popular appeal with a ground-breaking, unique theatrical language, world class dancers and high-quality production values, New Adventures is one of the great success stories of British theatre and dance with a leading international dance company. This unique production will be delivered through an innovative partnership between Arts Centre Melbourne, New Adventures & Re:Bourne and Victorian community networks.
Sir Matthew Bourne and other members of the New Adventures team will be in Melbourne in August 2016 to find two Community Dance Artists to join the company for this one-off project at Arts Centre Melbourne.
This project offers an unprecedented opportunity for Melbourne-based dance artists and physical performers to work.
