***
WHO: The Straz Center

WHAT: The Sleeping Beauty

WHEN: May 14-15, 2022

WHERE: Ferguson Hall, Straz Center

DETAILS: In this delightfully menacing fairy tale, Princess Aurora is cursed – by a single prick to the finger – to a 100-years’-slumber on her 16th birthday by the wicked Carabosse. Doomed by fate, only a prince’s sweet kiss can break the spell and awaken the sleeping beauty.

Featuring Next Generation Ballet’s rising stars and staged by Artistic Director Philip Neal, the production promises to be all the things that ballet is supposed to be – ravishing, exquisite, sumptuous and powerful.

The Sleeping Beauty will be performed May 14-15, Saturday at 2 and 7 p.m., and Sunday at 2 p.m. Regularly priced tickets begin at $20. Tickets can be purchased by calling 813.229.STAR (7827) or 800.955.1045 outside Tampa Bay, in person at the Straz Center Ticket Sales Office or online at www.strazcenter.org.
