I saw this wonderful ballet in Bradford a week ago. It covers such a range of emotions. One moment very funny, the next unbearably sad. I have so many amazing memories of that performance.

I’m not a dancer and I immediately recognised how impressive that “balance” lift was when Edward was on one knee and could do very little to help his partner balance. Don’t underestimate your audience, that lift looks impressive. This was the third MB production I’ve seen, and this one I took my 10yo to see, and he was blown away too. We thought he’d get restless, but not a bit of it. His favourite was the goth girl. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable evening.

Saw at the Liverpool Empire and brought a friend who was unfamiliar with New Adventures. Both adored it, both still talking about it now. Just beautiful xx

I saw the show yesterday in Southampton and it was completely magical, and I can only hope I'm lucky enough to see it again one day. I'm trying to find/watch everything I can about this show to fuel my new obsession! So interesting to hear about this beautiful dance.

So beautiful and thank you for the wonderful commentary about the heartbreak of these two lovers. I am crying and cannot see to type I live in the States and will make it a point to see this during the run. Will you two be performing every performance or is there a second cast, and if so, whenn will the casting be available? I classically see a ballet two to three times to get all the nuance and this is going to be one of those! Thanks for breaking my heart--------that's what you are supposed to do. Toi toi to everyone.
