From the court celebration of Aurora’s birth to the battle in the brambles with the witch’s beast, every scene is brought to ingenious life with 18th-century craftsmanship. Beautifully detailed scenery, ornate costumes and startlingly life-like figures create a romantic feast for the eyes set to Tchaikovsky’s enthralling score in this bewitching and breathtaking performance of Sleeping Beauty.
