Sleeping Beauty February 1, 2012

With soaring leaps, daring lifts, sharply accented spinning turns and high extensions, the ballet of Sleeping Beauty gives the fairy tale a lavish stage treatment. Choreographed by Marius Petipa to Tchaikovsky’s music, Sleeping Beauty is often considered the foundation of classic ballet repertory, a supreme demonstration of Petipa’s style including steel point work. The Moscow Festival Ballet performs this piece with beauty and grace in its time-honored tradition.
