Edward Scissorhands: Matthew Bourne’s dance version of Tim Burton’s cl
Based on the classic Tim Burton movie and featuring the hauntingly beautiful music of Danny Elfman and Terry Davies, Bourne and his New Adventures Company return to this witty, bittersweet story of an incomplete boy left alone in a strange new world. This magical dance production has carved a place in the hearts of audiences world-wide since its stage premiere in 2005 and is brought to the cinema screen for the very first time!
In a castle high on a hill lives Edward; a boy created by an eccentric inventor. When his creator dies, he is left alone and unfinished with only scissors for hands until a kindly townswoman invites him to live with her suburban family. Can Edward find his place in the well-meaning community which struggles to see past his curious appearance to the innocence and gentleness within?
The stage show was filmed live at the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff and stars the much-loved New Adventures dancers Liam Mower as Edward and Ashley Shaw as Kim.
