Dance fans in for a real treat.

In celebration of the magical Christmas season – a time of love, hope and festivities – Singapore Dance Theatre will enchant audiences with “Sleeping Beauty”, a ballet often considered to be the pinnacle of the classical repertoire.

This is the second time SDT is performing “Sleeping Beauty”, following the company’s premiere of the piece in 2010.

Staged by Artistic Director Janek Schergen and featuring choreography by Marius Petipa, Singapore Dance Theatre brings this beloved fairy-tale to life at the Esplanade Theatre as a grand finale to the 2012 season, with stunning costumes, spectacular sets and principal dancers of incomparable technique.

Not to mention the glorious score by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky, which remains one of the most beautiful and well-loved scores in all of classical music.

“Sleeping Beauty” promises to be a treat for audiences of all ages, captivating one and all with this timeless tale of the beautiful princess who falls asleep, only to be awoken by kiss of true love a hundred years later.

Tickets can be purchased from SISTIC (here) and from the Singapore Dance Theatre office.
