Sleeping Beauty
Vienna Festival Ballet presents
Sleeping Beauty
Saturday 13 March 2010
Incensed at being snubbed at the christening of Princess Aurora, the wicked fairy Carabosse lays a curse on the child, proclaiming that she will one day pierce her finger - and die. But the Lilac Fairy intervenes, and when the fateful day arrives, the princess and the entire palace instead fall into a deep sleep. A century later, Prince Florimund is guided to the castle by the Lilac Fairy, overcoming the obstacles created by Carabosse, and awakening the sleeping princess with a kiss..
Vienna Festival Ballet returns with their traditional, enchanting production of Sleeping Beauty, a classic fairy tale set to Tchaikovsky’s magnificent score. The music, stunning choreography, beautiful costumes, all combine to portray the struggle between good and evil.
