BALLET CYMRU – Sleeping Beauty

Journey to an enchanted world of love, magic and destiny

Festival dance favourites Ballet Cymru return to Lichfield with a brand-new reimagination of the classic fairy tale of a young princess spellbound by a curse.  Touching on the themes of love, acceptance and what it means to be different, the ballet is swept along by Tchaikovsky’s iconic score.

Sleeping Beauty features innovative choreography, exceptional dancing, distinctive costumes and immersive projections; so, come into the woods to celebrate Ballet Cymru’s 40^th anniversary, and see this company of breathtaking dancers take you on a journey like no other.
