"The show moves through 100 years, the time the princess spends sleeping, with different styles in costume and dancing, right up to now.

"It is very exciting and very dark. There is quite a vampiric feel to the characters.

"For a dancer it so interesting because it uses classical moves but others that are very different and contemporary.

"And of course with all of Matthew's work there is a lot of acting to help tell the story, which I really enjoy."

The New Adventures 25th anniversary celebration production features three of Bourne's regular collaborators, the Tony and Olivier award-winning designers, Lez Brotherston (set and costumes), Paule Constable (lighting) and Paul Groothuis (sound).

The show runs from Monday to Saturday next week (box office: 01752 267222 or online at www.theatreroyal.com/beauty
