Sleeping Beauty

RARE Productions Youth Theatre Group present

SLEEPING BEAUTY 

Sleeping Beauty is a classic fairy tale that tells the story of a beautiful princess who falls under a curse from an evil fairy. According to the curse, the princess would prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel on her 18th birthday and would die. A good fairy, however, intervenes and alters the curse, stating that the princess will instead sleep for 100 years and can only be awakened by true love’s kiss. On the princess’s 18th birthday, the curse takes effect and she falls asleep.

We follow the story as the prince and his journey to overcome the obstacles and awaken the princess. In the end, will true love’s kiss awaken the princess, and will the kingdom be saved.  Running time:  1h 45mins (including interval)
