Classical Ballet and Opera House - Sleeping Beauty at the Floral Pavilion, New Brighton

Classical Ballet and Opera House - Sleeping Beauty

Classical Ballet and Opera House presents every child’s favourite fairy-tale, Sleeping Beauty, the classic story of love and innocence, mystery and magic set to Tchaikovsky’s sublime score. Enjoy stunning choreography, sumptuous costumes and wonderful sets from the fantasy world in which the Lilac Fairy struggles against the evil Carabosse.

Amande Concerts, who previously toured with the UK-based "The Russian State Ballet", present this ballet company from Moldova with dancers from different countries, including Ukraine who are currently joining the company in growing numbers.

The ballet is based on the fairy-tale by Charles Perrault. The Sleeping Beauty tells of the Princess Aurora, cursed at her christening by the evil Carabosse to one day prick her finger on a spindle and die. Thanks to the timely intervention of the Lilac Fairy she doesn’t die, but sleeps for a hundred years.

Woken by a prince, who has battled through the Enchanted Forest to reach her, they marry at a ceremony attended by nursery rhyme characters like Puss in Boots and some creatures of the forest.

There are no scores more successful in supporting the full range of ballet than those by Tchaikovsky. Highlights include the Famous ‘Rose Adagio’ when Princess Aurora is introduced to four princes.

This ravishing production of the Sleeping Beauty shimmers like an exquisite dream, a must-see for the dedicated fan of ballet as well as first time ballet goers.

The Sleeping Beauty is a ballet that all can enjoy, even the very young.
