Sleeping Beauty is a coming-of-age tale of magic and true love. When the evil fairy, Carabosse, shows up uninvited to Aurora’s christening, she places a curse on the young princess, condemning her to death after pricking her finger on a needle before her 21st birthday. The good fairies transformed the curse so that Aurora will instead fall into a deep sleep that can only be broken if Carabosse is defeated. With the help of her fairy friends and a handsome prince, will she be able to wake up or will she stay asleep forever?
Our modernised adaptation of this classic was a performance for the whole family to enjoy on Saturdays 10th and 24th June 2023 at PASS Theatre, Edinburgh College.
