Overview
Join us for a special Friday matinee of The Sleeping Beauty, a shorter, family-friendly version of our performance designed for all ages and members of the community. Whether you’re introducing your family to the magic of live performance, attending as a school or community group, or simply prefer a shorter show, this relaxed performance is a welcoming and accessible way to experience the joy of ballet.
Tickets are $15 each for groups of ten or more. Individual tickets start at $20.
The story of The Sleeping Beauty unfolds in a kingdom of marvels, where Princess Aurora is cursed by the maleficent Carabosse and only the power of true love’s kiss can compel her back home. A cast of storybook characters add charm and whimsy. Lavish sets, opulent costumes, and remarkable dance artistry bring this timeless tale to life, transporting audiences to a magical realm where good triumphs over evil. From its iconic “Rose Adagio” to its thrilling finale, The Sleeping Beauty remains a dazzling showcase of everything that defines ballet at its finest.
