Matthew Bourne's stage adaptation of The Red Shoes transforms the film into a compelling two-act ballet exploring the conflict between art and personal love.
I read My Sister, The Serial Killer during the pandemic. I loved it. I hate traditional ballet stories where women are constantly saved by men or killing themselves because the man doesn't like them. I am always on the lookout for something to turn into a ballet that doesn't feel like a woman is at the hands of male violence. There are themes of that in the book, but it felt really funny, dark and very stageable.
