Sleeping Beauty holds an honoured place in the repertoire of virtually every major ballet company worldwide. After more than 25 successful years as the nation’s most widely toured professional ballet company, Canada’s Ballet Jörgen creates a new production of this classic story ballet for the 2015/16 season. Choreographed by Bengt Jörgen and set to the beloved Tchaikovsky music, Sleeping Beauty is a grand tale of the power of pure love, of good triumphing over evil, of the terrible and beautiful force of nature. This newest addition to the Ballet Jörgen repertoire is a gorgeous re-telling of the timeless fairy tale of Aurora, awakened from her spell-bound sleep by a magical kiss.
