New Adventures Choreographer Award

The New Adventures Choreographer Award has been launched in celebration of Matthew Bourne’s 50th birthday last year and to honour both the work and achievements of Matthew Bourne and his company New Adventures within dance and musical theatre.

Almost £15,000 has been pledged by 120 people: artists, audience members, friends and fans of Matthew Bourne.

The recipient of the award will be granted the money to work on their choreographic skills over a period of twelve months. Throughout the year, the recipient will have the chance to be mentored by Bourne and other New Adventures associate artists to research and develop a programme of work with a company of New Adventures dancers. In addition, they will receive advice and support from the management and administrative staff at New Adventures and Re:Bourne, including creating and managing budgets, marketing and general management. A showcase performance of the created programme of work will be the culmination of the award, to which leading industry figures will be invited.

Aspiring choreographers are invited to apply now. There is no age limit and all styles of dance will be considered. The deadline for applications is 8th May 2011.

A shortlist of applications will be announced on 8th June. The assessment panel will be headed by Matthew Bourne and the winner will be announced mid-July.
