The legendary choreographer chats to Jo and Simon about his new incarnation of the classic ballet 'Swan Lake', which promises a fresh look for the 21st century.

Retaining the iconic elements of the original production loved by millions around the world, this Swan Lake is perhaps still best known for replacing the female corps-de-ballet with a menacing male ensemble, which shattered conventions, turned tradition upside down and took the dance world by storm.

Collecting over thirty international accolades including an Olivier Award in the UK and three Tonys on Broadway, Matthew鈥檚 interpretation of Tchaikovsky鈥檚 masterpiece is touring for 32 weeks to 22 venues throughout the UK, including an eight-week Christmas season at Sadler鈥檚 Wells. The show will then continue until the end of May 2019, before embarking on a number of international tour dates.

Bringing you the best of both worlds, Jo Whiley and Simon Mayo join forces to bring you three hours of the greatest guests, music and early evening entertainment. With top names from the worlds of film, TV and online, plus regular live sessions from the hottest names in music, Jo and Simon will bring you entertaining and compelling celeb chat each evening. Plus there'll be audience interaction, the freshest new music and great chat to accompany you in the early evening - whatever you're doing.
