Symphonic storytelling: The Sleeping Beauty

Mark Pullinger, 27th July

The Sleeping Beauty is perhaps the Ugly Duckling of Tchaikovsky’s three ballets. It was the second in the trilogy, completed in 1889, but has neither the dramatic thrust of Swan Lake nor the calorific sugar-coated charm of The Nutcracker in terms of popular appeal.

Mats Ek's Sleeping Beauty no sleeper at Les Grands Ballets

Stephen Raskauskas, 11th October

What do heroin, fish soup, and fairy godmothers have in common? They are all ingredients in choreographer Mats Ek’s reinvention of the ballet Sleeping Beauty, currently being performed through the end of October with Les Grands Ballet Canadiens de Montréal.Though the Sleeping Beauty we know today exists in many versions, the scenario is rarely changed significantly.
