BGE Theatre, Wednesday 12th February

Moscow City Ballet – Sleeping Beauty. Part of the Tchaikovsky Trilogy.

Moscow City Ballet celebrates the classical Russian tradition in spectacular style. The enchanting and romantic story of Sleeping Beauty inspired Tchaikovsky to write some of his most glorious music, and the ballet has captivated audiences for well over a century. Featuring the delicate Princess Aurora, her gallant Prince, wicked Carabosse, the beautiful Lilac Fairy and a host of fairy-tale characters, this truly magical production showcases the company's exquisite dramatic and lyrical talents. Tchaikovsky is the undisputed Tsar of ballet; his sweeping scores have the power to transport audiences from delight to despair, especially when performed by a full orchestra. The new generation of principal dancers adds a a youthful exuberance to these renowned ballets.

Part of the Tchaikovsky Trilogy, alongside Swan Lake and The Nutcracker.

At its heart lies a profound belief that words, connection, and sheer will can tip the scales between survival and surrender. A love letter to the health service, the play captures the heartbreak and absurdity of life on the frontline.
