Highly acclaimed European Ballet presents the classic and most enchanting ballet The Sleeping Beauty at Mullingar Arts Centre on Wednesday May 23 at 7.30pm.
Under the direction of Stanislav Tchassov, former principal dancer of The Bolshoi Ballet, this exciting and dynamic company of international first-class dancers has endeared itself to audiences and critics alike for its commitment to excellent artistic standards and for the dedication and energy of its talented dancers.
Set to Tchaikovsky’s glorious score, enhanced by over 45 beautiful handcrafted costumes, the ballet is ideal for audiences of all ages.
Highly respected, award-winning dancers from Russia, France, Italy, Germany, Bulgaria, Spain, and the UK will perform in this beautiful production.
