Sleeping Beauty - Vienna Festival Ballet
This breathtaking ballet is set in the magical world of a fairy kingdom, where the King and Queen are celebrating the birth of their daughter, Princess Aurora. The Lilac Fairy and her attendants have been invited to the christening, but the wicked fairy, Carabosse, has been forgotten. Angered by this, Carabosse casts a spell on Aurora, that on her 16th birthday she will prick her finger and die. The Lilac Fairy changes the spell so that she will not die but will fall asleep for a hundred years until a handsome prince awakens her with a kiss. The Vienna Festival Ballet celebrate their 25th anniversary this year with this magical production which is sure to be a wonderful evening for the whole family. Following the traditional fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty and with the musical score by Tchaikovsky, the performance is certain to enchant audiences of all ages.
