For wonder and enchantment, look no further than this classic fairy tale ballet: Kenneth MacMillan’s The Sleeping Beauty will leave you spellbound.

Experience all that is grand, gleaming and gorgeous with English National Ballet in this stunning version of one of the world’s favourite stories.

As a baby, Princess Aurora is cursed by the wicked Carabosse: on her 16th birthday, she will prick her finger and die. Her godmother the Lilac Fairy alters the spell so Aurora will not die, but sleep for 100 years. Only a true love’s kiss can break the spell and awaken her.
