EventThe Sleeping Beauty
Sun, 4 Dec, 2011
The Civic, Auckland
Three years have gone into adapting this 200-year-old classic for contemporary audiences. Unsurprisingly therefore, you can expect to witness spectacular sets, lavish costume design and breathtaking classical choreography. Accompanied by Tchaikovsky’s soaring score, The Sleeping Beauty tells the timeless story of Princess Aurora who falls prey to the evil fairy Carabosse – only a kiss from a handsome prince will break the spell and ensure her future happiness. However, if you look beyond the simple love story, you’ll also find a tale rich in social, political and psychological complexity.
