In this Sleeping Beauty pantomime script, Princess Aurora is finally ready to rule. Shes fierce, fearless, and totally uninterested in true love. But her jealous aunt Carabosse has other ideas, plotting to steal the throne and alter the line of succession. With birthday cake disasters, royal confusion, and the odd magical curse thrown in, things quickly get sleepy (in a good way)! Luckily, Auroras got Nanny Nightnurse, the bumbling Muddles, a flustered Archbishop, and three totally unique fairy godmothers on her side, including one who naps more than she casts spells. Throw in a prince whos more sweet than sword-swinging, and a royal family thats equal parts chaos and charm, and youve got a magical mess on your hands. Packed with slapstick, silliness and sparkles, Sleeping Beauty is a laugh-out-loud fairy tale adventure. Will they wake Aurora in time to stop Carabosses wicked plan? Or will the kingdom snooze its way into a nightmare?
