The Unforgettable Fairy Tale

The Eugene Ballet company presents a thrilling new take on Tchaikovsky's masterful fairy tale adaptation, from founding Artistic Director Toni Pimble! Re-imagining the timeless story of a princess set under an enchantment of eternal sleep by a wicked sorcerer, Sleeping Beauty celebrates ballet's golden era with lush visuals, impeccable choreography, and the power of love over evil.

What Is The Story?

The young Princess Aurora has led a charmed life so far. But as she reaches her sixteenth birthday, she has no idea that a terrible curse is almost upon her - and when she pricks her finger on a spinning wheel, she falls into an eternal slumber along with the entire kingdom. But all is not lost, as the Lilac Fairy finds a noble prince whose love and courage could free her and her people from the clutches of the spell - and from the designs of the villainous sorcerer Carabosse.
