Irish stars stepped out for the opening night of Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake. The reinvention of Tchaikovsky's masterpiece is currently showing at the Bord Gais Energy Theatre in Dublin. The show premiered almost 30 years ago and has now become the most successful dance theatre production of all time, creating new audiences and inspiring generations of young dancers. Dubliner Stephen Murray also dances in the show. On Tuesday night, Dancing with the Stars judge Arthur Gourounlian, model Thalia Heffernan, who brought her mam Susan Ebrill, FM104's Zeinab Elguzouli, Andrea Gilligan and Paul Quinn of Virgin Media News; as well as Laura Nolan, David O'Reilly and Katja Mia all stepped out for the opening night. First staged at Sadler's Wells in London in 1995, Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake took the dance theatre world by storm, becoming the longest running full-length dance classic in the West End and on Broadway. It has since been performed across the globe, collecting over 30 international accolades including the Olivier Award for Best New Dance Production and three Tony Awards for Best Director of a Musical, Best Choreography and Best Costume Design.
