Much to their dismay, this RadioTimes.com writer was at the grand old age of 25 when they finally watched Tim Burton's 1990 movie, Edward Scissorhands. Like when they watched The Lion King (also at a too-old age than they care to admit), they couldn't believe this fantasy film has been missing from their lives for so long. Now, Edward Scissorhands is going on tour, but this time, it's a ballet production, and you'd better be sure we'll be first in line for this adaptation (finally!).
Burton's Edward Scissorhands film follows the story of Edward (played by Johnny Depp), an eccentric boy who lives in a castle high on a hill and has scissors for hands, as he's invited to live with a kindly Avon lady, Peg, and her family after Edward's inventor dies. We watch Edward fall in love with Peg's daughter Kim (Winona Ryder in the film), but things take a turn for the worse when he's falsely accused of committing a crime.
The movie is unique and charming, and we can only imagine it's even more magical on stage. Matthew Bourne, of Matthew Bourne's New Adventures, has created a ballet around the story, which features atmospheric music by Danny Elfman and Terry Davies.
The Edward Scissorhands ballet first carved a place in audiences' hearts back in 2005 when it premiered in Plymouth before jet-setting off around the world to places such as Seoul, San Francisco, Sydney, and Paris, just to name a few.
The show returned to the UK for a huge tour, performing over 130 shows in UK cities like Nottingham, Birmingham, and Southampton, back in 2014. Now, nine years later, Edward Scissorhands will be back at a theatre near you, and we know exactly how you can get your hands on tickets.
