Sleeping Beauty Presented by Missoula Children’s Theatre

The Missoula Children’s Theatre presents SLEEPING BEAUTY, an original adaptation of the classic fairy tale.

A new princess is born, and from far and wide the people of the kingdom gather to celebrate. One simple mistake is made — an invitation is misplaced, and the wrath of the vicious Scarella falls upon the poor infant in the form of a spell. Sleeping Beauty is now destined to sleep for eternity if she should prick her finger on a spindle before she reaches her sixteenth birthday. Sleeping Beauty’s Fairy Godmothers do their best to amend the spell, but Scarella, with the help of some nasty Trolls, tricks Sleeping Beauty into pricking her finger and the spell takes effect. Five hundred years pass, and Sleeping Beauty wakes to find herself in a Rock ‘n Roll dream! Also featured in this production are the King and the Queen, Spot, the Fairies, the Palace Attendants and the Caterpillars. SLEEPING BEAUTY — a Rock ‘n Roll Fable for the ages is definitely no sleeper!

Students of all ages are encouraged to audition the Monday prior to the performance and must be available for a student show Friday morning.
