October 30 Sleeping Beauty ballet in Cartagena
The Kiev Ballet perform to music by Tchaikovsky at the El Batel auditorium in Cartagena
Sleeping Beauty was first commissioned for the Imperial Theatre of Russia in 1889, and with music by Piotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and choreography was performed for the first time at the Mariinsky Theatre in Saint Petersburg early the following year.
This classical piece, adapted from the fairy tale by Charles Perrault and a later version by the Grimm brothers, is still frequently performed today, telling the tale of Princess Aurora and her being woken after 100 years of slumber by the handsome prince.
The performance at the Auditorio El Batel on the seafront in Cartagena begins at 21.00 on 30th October, with tickets priced at between 28 and 39 euros and available online here.
