This June, New Adventures bring Matthew Bourne’s award winning production The Midnight Bell to York Theatre Royal. Inspired by the work of the great English novelist Patrick Hamilton  The Midnight Bell promises to delight audiences with Bourne’s masterful storytelling and signature style.

Set in 1930s London ordinary people emerge from cheap boarding houses nightly to pour out their passions, hopes and dreams in the pubs and fog-bound streets of Soho and Fitzrovia. Step inside The Midnight Bell, a tavern where one particular lonely-hearts club gather to play out their lovelorn affairs of the heart; bitter comedies of longing, frustration, betrayal and redemption.

The Midnight Bell premiered to great acclaim in 2021 and received five nominations at the 2022 National Dance Awards, with Matthew Bourne winning the award for Best Modern Choreography and Michela Meazza for Outstanding Female Modern Performance.

The Midnight Bell is performed on Wed 04 Jun, 7:30pm, Thu 05 Jun, 2pm & 7:30pm, Fri 06 Jun, 7:30pm (Audio Described Performance), Sat 07 Jun, 2:30pm & 7:30pm.
