Description The story of Princess Aurora's 100 year sleep - and the Prince whose kiss only can wake her - is the departure point for a fascinating new legend.
This new production gives the ballet a fresh new voice, while remaining true to its orginal spirit. Set to Tchaikovsky's glorious score, Maina Gielgud's traditional production has captured the hearts of audiences and critics alike. One of the highlights of Sydney Opera House's 20th birthday celebrations.
