Be swept off your feet with the world’s most famous love story!

Since the very first performance, the world has seen many versions of this beautiful timeless world famous fairy-tale classic featuring the artistry and skill of classical ballet.
Sleeping Beauty was first presented in 1890 by the Imperial Ballet at the Mariinsky Theatre, St Petersburg. It is a ballet in a prologue and three acts, and original choreographer was Marius Petipa with the music score composed by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. The original scenario was conceived by Ivan Vsevolozhsky, and is based on Charles Perrault's La Belle au bois dormant.
The Victorian State Ballets production features the unique masterpiece musical score which makes this ballet so special, coupled together with traditional choreography in selected scenes.
The famous Grand Pas de Deuxs, Florestan Pas de Trois, traditional solos, The Rose Adagio, Blue Bird, Puss in Boots & White Cat, Red Riding Hood & the Wolf and the famous Lilac Fairy and her fairies are a highlight of this ballet and continue to be enjoyed by ballet lovers and general audiences of all ages world-wide today.
Enjoy the stunning female & male solo variations of Petipa and stunning corps de ballet scenes. VSB's unique version creates a fresh touch while maintaining true to the original storyline. This year we are delighted to bring Sleeping Beauty to audiences with a selection of highly skilled artists and the magical choreography, traditional and re-mastering of Michelle Cassar De Sierra.
