Plot summary: The story is a
familiar one. A princess is placed under a horrible spell by a jealous, evil
fairy. Our villainess was mistakenly left off the guest list by a rather
scatter-brained, easily-excitable court events planner named Catalabutte.
Carabosse, the evil fairy, vows to get revenge for this slight by placing the
lovely baby princess under a lethal spell that will become effective on her
sixteenth birthday. Fortunately for the princess, all gifts have not yet been
presented and Willow Fairy enters with hers. She is not able to cancel the
evil spell, but she does modify it so that with love's first kiss the sleeping
princess may awaken. By interweaving recorded selections from Tchaikovsky's
wonderful ballet Sleeping Beauty as background and dance music, a lovely
musical fairy tale will light up your stage. (I worked with my school's incredible
music teacher Mrs. Breena Ray on this project to the delight of our audiences.)
