English National Ballet and English National Ballet School present My First Ballet: Sleeping Beauty, a reimagined version of the classic fairy-tale ballet created especially for children as young as three. Adapted to an hour in length and with a narrator to help young audiences follow the story, My First Ballet: Sleeping Beauty is the perfect way to introduce children as young as three to the magic of ballet.
Following its premiere at the Peacock Theatre, London on 24 March 2016, My First Ballet: Sleeping Beauty will embark on a seven week national tour which includes performances in new venues in Norwich, Dartford and Hastings as well as a return to Manchester, Bristol, Woking and Oxford.
Choreographed by English National Ballet Associate Artist George Williamson, former student of English National Ballet School, My First Ballet: Sleeping Beauty is part of the My First Ballet series which enters its fifth year in 2016. Since its inception in 2012, over 150,000 people have enjoyed the series which has been reviewed on Parenting Without Tears including the hugely successful My First Ballet: Swan Lake, Coppelia and Cinderella.
