Sleeping Beauty tells the story of Insomnia, a beautiful princess who works in a hairdressing salon. When she is put to sleep by the evil fairy, Hemlock, it is up to the handsome hero, Prince Bergamot to save her.

The colourful cast of characters also includes the three good fairies, Chamomile, Coriander and Citronella; the larger-than-life dame, Kitty Capers and her lazy-but-lovable son, Ginger; Hemlock's bumbling assistants, Figwort and Bogbean; and Catnip, an enchanted cat.

Audiences can expect plenty of singing and dancing accompanied by a live band, as well as lots of silly jokes and comic antics, in a show that's guaranteed to have them rolling in the aisles.

Children are actively encouraged to join in the traditional banter between cast and audience - " Where is he, boys and girls? " " He's behind you! "
- and to sing along with the familiar tunes. A lucky few will even get to take part in the action.

All-in-all, Sleeping Beauty promises to be a spectacular and fun-filled show for the whole family!
