*The Sleeping Beauty
September 6 & 7, 2008 8:00 pm

The Sleeping Beauty is certainly a familiar fairy tale – Carabosse places a curse on the King's daughter Aurora that she will one day prick her finger and die. The Lilac Fairy responds by placing a spell to protect Aurora should she prick her finger. Instead of dying, she falls into a deep sleep from which she is awoken after a hundred years by the kiss of a prince.

Produced by Dominic Walsh Dance Theatre
