Ballet Etudes Company

The Ballet Etudes Company returns to the Westport Playhouse with a new production of the enchanted fairy-tale ballet,  SLEEPING BEAUTY.                 

This production will feature principal dancers from American Ballet Theatre and a cast of 60 dancers.  Danced to Tchaikovsky's magnificent score, this timeless ballet is staged by Christina Fagundes, after Petipa's original choreography.  Opulent costumes from the former collection of American Ballet Theatre are complimented by elaborate sets and scenery, contributing to the magic of this delightful ballet.  This 90-minute adaptation is "family friendly," for ages 4 and up. 

Adult tickets are $35 and include a FREE child's ticket.  Additional children's tickets are $17.50 (Special pricing only available by calling or coming to the box office.)

Tickets will be available from the Playhouse beginning Feb. 12th by calling their box office:  203-227-4177 or visiting their website.
