English National Ballet - The Sleeping BeautyFamed for its fairytale romance and challenges so technical they'd give any ballerina a run for their money, The Sleeping Beauty is history's quintessential ballet, so much so that Sir Kenneth MacMillan brought iconic composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's 1890 story into modern importance in 1987. Join the company as they bring the tale to you on this limited UK tour this season.19 - 22 NovManchester Palace TheatrePrices fromMore infoBook Tickets
