The Sleeping Beauty
Venue: Georgian Theatre Royal
Times: Various: please ask Box Office for full details
Tickets: £7- £17 (Adults); £7-£15 (OAPs / students); £7-£10 (children)
One of the world’s favourite fairy stories of all times, The Sleeping Beauty originated from Persia over a thousand years ago! Frenchman Charles Perrault wrote down various fairytales in 1697 – several of them later became pantomimes. The first pantomime version of The Sleeping Beauty was at Drury Lane in 1806 – just eighteen years after Richmond’s Georgian theatre was built. Two centuries later, PMA Productions take on the story.
A magical castle deep in the forest, a handsome prince, a beautiful sleeping princess, fairies and a very wicked witch all promise rather a special Christmas panto this year. Following huge success over the last four years, dancers from the Heritage School of Dance in Stockton-on-Tees support PMA’s professional cast.
Book your seats now to avoid disappointment!
