For the 2010-11 season, National Marionette Theatre will be offering three different touring productions: "Hansel and Gretel", "Sleeping Beauty" and "Pinocchio".
SLEEPING BEAUTY - The princess Aurora has been asleep for almost one hundred years when our hero, Prince Steffon learns of the her story. He resolves to find the sleeping princess and rescue her from the evil fairy Belladonna. Told from the prince's point of view, our newest production combines beautifully crafted marionettes with the timeless music from Tchaikovsky's ballet. Recommended for family audiences ages 4 and up.
