The Sleeping Beauty returns to the Joburg Theatre stage from June 28 to July 7 in a glittering production by the Joburg Ballet.

Through an evil spell Princess Aurora, played by Monike Cristina, goes into 100 years of slumber after a single prick of her finger on her 16th birthday. The princess is awoken 100 later by a kiss from Prince Désiré, played by French ballet dancer Guillaume Diop.

The classical production features Tchaikovsky’s score played live by the Johannesburg Philharmonic Orchestra.
