This bold reimagining sees original series creator Russell T Davies (Queer As Folk, Doctor Who) serving as Executive Producer, alongside legendary pop duo PetShop Boys and Glyn Fussell (Sink the Pink, Mighty Hoopla festival). The production will be choreographed and directed by Rambert's Artistic Director Benoit Swan Pouffer reigniting his partnership with Dramaturg Kaite O'Reilly (The Almond and The Seahorse) on the development of a new script for the show.

It's a Sin is a Rambert and Factory International co-production that will premiere at Aviva Studios in Manchester. It is co-produced with Wales Millennium Centre (Cardiff), Capital Theatres (Edinburgh), Sadler's Wells (London) and Les Théâtres de la Ville (Luxembourg). The live tour will begin on 16th February 2027 at Aviva Studios in Manchester, before touring across theatres in Luxembourg, Liverpool, Birmingham, Plymouth, Southampton, Edinburgh, Norwich, Newcastle, Cardiff, Truro, London, Glasgow and Sheffield throughout 2027. Full listings details including venues and performance dates are detailed below.

Raw, euphoric and deeply moving, It's a Sin will be a visceral theatrical experience - a reckoning and a celebration told through fearless movement. Clubs pulse with possibility. Friendships ignite. Fear edges closer. Lives are changed forever.

Expanding the world of the beloved television drama, the production brings together an extraordinary creative team. Shaping the musical landscape Composer and Music Supervisor Roman Gian Arthur (Grammy nominated albums multi-instrumentalist credits include Janelle Monáe's Dirty Computer and The Age of Pleasure) will compose the music with the support of executive producers Pet Shop Boys (who composed and performed the original “It's a sin” hit song) to evoke the glamour, defiance and emotional intensity of 1980s queer life. Set and video design comes from Luke Halls Studio (West Side Story, concerts from Adele, Pet Shop Boys, Dua Lipa, Take That), whose work spans global arena tours and major stage productions.

Originally set in London between 1981 and 1991, Davies' story follows a generation of young gay men and their friends as the HIV/AIDS crisis unfolds around them. It is a story of joy and innocence, of loss and injustice - and of resilience, activism and love in the face of unimaginable change.

Rambert is transforming this narrative into a powerful live experience where contemporary dance, archive and cinematic visuals collide as past and present unfold side by side. Urgent and intimate, it asks vital questions about memory, community and how we choose to live.

Unapologetic. Electrifying. Deeply human. It's a Sin continues Rambert's legacy of bringing epic stories to the stage through movement that speaks to now.

Benoit Swan Pouffer said: “Storytelling sits at the heart of Rambert's mission. This is a story we feel compelled to tell right now, and collaborating with Russell - one of the most powerful storytellers of our time — is incredibly exciting. Together we're exploring how dance and choreography can carry urgent, emotional narratives in a visceral way. I can't wait to share this with audiences, and there is so much more still to come as the work evolves.”

Russell T Davies said: “Excitement is rising as this landmark production gets closer and closer. It's such an honour for me to see It's a Sin being brought to life by Benoit and the team with passion, joy and respect.”

Pet Shop Boys commented: “The original TV drama was a landmark series which compellingly presented the reality and tragedy of the Aids crisis to a mass audience. Our song “It's a sin” was contemporary with the crisis and we are proud to be involved as this poignant and important story is interpreted in a different medium.”

Factory International Artistic Director and CEO John McGrath said: “We are delighted to be partnering with Rambert on this thrilling new project. Russel T Davies is an icon, and the story he tells in It's a Sin has resonated with all ages. Rambert will no doubt re-tell the story with great vision and beauty. We can't wait to premiere this collaboration at our home, Aviva Studios, before sharing it with an exceptional group of national and international co-producers.”

The announcement comes during Rambert's centenary celebrations, marked by its nationwide FUTURE100 Campaign aiming to power the next 100 years of bold dance, artists and participation.

Alongside this, Rambert will tour This is Rambert, nationally and internationally, presenting a fierce and fearless triple bill of contemporary works by today's most distinctive choreographic voices, brought to life by Rambert's world-class dancers. Reaffirming its position as one of the world's most innovative dance companies, as it enters its second century, Rambert continues to push boundaries - creating work that provokes, connects and captures the spirit of its time.

It's a Sin is made possible thanks to major support from the Colwinston Charitable Trust's 30th Anniversary Fund. It's a Sin has been supported by Incentivising Touring: Repayable Grants for Theatre and Dance, a pilot scheme developed by Arts Council England to support mid-large-scale productions to tour to regional venues. It's a Sin was amongst the 23 to receive a share of over £4.5 million across two investment rounds of the scheme, which creates the opportunity for more people to see high-quality shows close to where they live.
