THIS WEEK AT PST
"Sleeping Beauty" by Tanglewood Marionettes

TWO PERFORMANCES EACH DAY!
Wed & Thurs | August 10th & 11th| 10:30am & 1pm

About the show: A classic tale which appeals to children of all ages, "Sleeping Beauty" begins in King Felix’s great hall for the christening of Princess Aurora. The party goes awry when the wicked witch arrives and curses Princess Aurora. Will the curse come true? Will someone with a “true heart” appear? You will know when you see Tanglewood Marionettes’ presentation of this best-loved tale.

In this retelling, a painted story book opens to reveal each scene. Beautifully hand-crafted marionettes are brought to life by a master puppeteer as the dramatic events unfold.

Recommended for ages 4 & up
