Sacramento Ballet revamp Tchaikovsky's masterpiece this Valentine's Day
The peerless Sacramento Ballet company presents a thrilling new take on Tchaikovsky's masterful fairy tale adaptation, opening for a strictly limited run in February 2026! Re-imagining the timeless story of a princess set under an enchantment of eternal sleep by a wicked sorcerer, The Sleeping Beauty will celebrate ballet's golden era and its modern evolution.
The young Princess Aurora has led a charmed life so far. But as she reaches her sixteenth birthday, she has no idea that a terrible curse is almost upon her - and when she pricks her finger on a spinning wheel, she falls into an eternal slumber along with the entire kingdom. But all is not lost, as the Lilac Fairy finds a noble prince whose love and courage could free her and her people from the clutches of the spell - and from the designs of the villainous sorcerer Carabosse.
