A Gothic fairytale. A moving love story. A dance spectacular.
Matthew Bourne and New Adventures are back with their latest creation -- a magical new stage adaptation of the classic Tim Burton motion picture Edward Scissorhands.

Audiences across North America will be captivated by this unique production, as well as by the humor and charm of the leading character, Edward, an innocent soul forced to find his way in a world that doesn't accept him.
Hummingbird Centre. Runs for four nights only: Wednesday April 4 - Saturday April 7, 2007, Tickets: Ticketmaster, 416-872-2262, www.edwardscissorhandstour.com/

We so rarely have an opportunity to dress up in our gothic finery and go out for an evening of theatre. Well, I believe the time is here! It's an adaptation of Tim Burton's Edward Scissorhands, what more could we ask for? Surely we've all seen it on the screen, though perhaps not for years. And most likely never on the stage. So gather some friends, dust off your finest gothic apparel (I'm thinking along the lines of velvet, lace, corsets.. and less along the lines of PVC and leather, though you can never go wrong with basic black) and come out for Edward Scissorhands. See you there.
