The Sleeping Beauty
January 23, 2026 | Patterson Park's Washington Theater
​
The Sleeping Beauty follows the story of Princess Aurora, a beautiful young princess whose life is changed when the wicked fairy Carabosse places a terrible curse on her: one prick of a spinning wheel will send her into a deep sleep. The kind Lilac Fairy softens the curse so Aurora will not die, but instead sleep for 100 years until a brave prince awakens her with true love’s kiss. Filled with fairies, enchantment, and a royal celebration, The Sleeping Beauty is a timeless tale of good triumphing over evil.

Rehearsals are underway, with our first community performance slated for October 24 at St. Clare's Senior Center.Â
