The Sleeping Beauty told through light, music and dance
Sleeping Beauty is a story with deep roots, first appearing in European folklore in the 14th century, and later popularised by Walt Disney’s iconic version, which drew heavily from Tchaikovsky’s ballet score. With its enchantments, slumbering princess, and fated love, it’s a tale that naturally lends itself to the dance. Through movement and glittering, flowing costumes, the performance feels dreamlike and ethereal, as if the story were always meant to be told this way.
