Sleeping Beauty
Tchaikovsky for Tots

Published on April 30, 2008 at 1:41am
This version of Sleeping Beauty has done away with sharp spinning wheels and sword fights, and recast the tale in a Russian kingdom. The king has offended the Winter Fairy by declaring that he wants eternal spring (a tall order in Russia). The Winter Fairy retaliates, saying that if his daughter, Anna, ever leaves the kingdom, she’ll freeze. Throw in some animals, a handsome prince and Tchaikovsky’s original ballet score, and lesson No. 1 is complete. 11 a.m. Monday through Friday, this week only. 100 Concert Drive, Hermann Park. For information, call 281–373–3386 or visit www.milleroutdoortheatre.com. Free.
