Edward Scissorhands

Edward Scissorhands is a contemporary dance adaptation of the 1990 American romance fantasy film of the same name. Created by Matthew Bourne, this production features music by Terry Davies. The dance version, which is set in the 1950s, was developed with the help of the original film's screenwriter, Caroline Thompson, and composer, Danny Elfman. The story is told entirely through music and dance with no discourse, following a plot that is similar to the movie.
