Roxey Ballet's annual "Children's Classic Stories" series presents two beloved tales this spring: Carnival of the Animals and Sleeping Beauty Act III-Aurora's Wedding.

Carnival of the Animals tells the story of a child lost at a zoo who encounters various dynamic animals as he finds his way home. Choreographed by Mark Roxey, the ballet includes 57 colorful costumes and masks designed by Alicia Worden, Ana Vichnevetsky, and Nilda Roxey. As the dancers interpret lions, fish, donkeys, elephants, chickens, tortoises, birds, and kangaroos, audience members enjoy various styles of dance paired with surprising instrumentation.

Sleeping Beauty Act III- Aurora’s Wedding features the extraordinary pas de deux of Princess Aurora and Prince Desire and includes Jewel Fairy Variations, Blue Bird, Puss in Boots, and Little Red Riding Hood pas de deux. As Princess Aurora and her family are awakened from their deep sleep, the princess accepts Prince Florimund’s proposal for marriage and her family approves. A joyful wedding at the castle celebrates their marriage and is attended by their families and magical fairies. Masterful choreography by Mark Roxey and exquisite costumes by Alicia Warden and Nilda Roxey bring this classic fairytale to life.
