Performance Dates
An extravagant escape set to a glorious Tschaikovsky score
A landmark in the history of dance, The Sleeping Beauty ranks as the supreme achievement of Marius Petipa, the architect of classical ballet as it has been passed down through time. Set to an infinitely melodic score by Tschaikovsky that offered endless inspiration for the choreographer, the ballet transmutes the treasured fairy tale of the title into a full-length dramatic work that provides its large cast—the company’s production, created by Peter Martins, features more than a hundred dancers—with rich opportunities to display their mastery of classical technique.
FEB 15 Sunday matinee begins at 1 PM; specially added Sunday evening performance begins at 7 PM.
