EDWARD SCISSORHANDS
A gothic fairytale.
A moving love story.
The magical stage adaptation of the classic motion picture.
This enchanting, uplifting, record-breaking stage adaptation of the classic motion picture swept UK and US audiences off their feet, turning a film favourite into a theatrical triumph.
Following in the footsteps of his smash hit Swan Lake, Matthew Bourne uses music, movement and stage magic to tell the story of a boy left alone and unfinished by the eccentric inventor who created him.
Transforming tired gardens into triumphs of topiary, treating desperate housewives to haircuts with a difference, and shaping spectacular ice sculptures out of snowstorms, Edward quickly becomes the local hero. But not everyone can see past the scars and scissors to the beauty and innocence within . . .
A magical fairytale. A moving love story. A major stage spectacular, Edward Scissorhands comes to life!
