With its scenario drawn from the stories of Perrault, a glorious score by Tchaikovsky, and choreography after Marius Petipa, The Sleeping Beauty has been enchanting audiences of all ages for over a century. But more than the tale of a princess, spell and a kiss, The Sleeping Beauty is a tour de force of classical dancing, with brilliant solo choreography and ensemble pageantry. This grand-scale production, with sets and costumes by David Walker, spotlights the accomplishments of the entire Company.
