The St. Petersburg Ballet, one of the most famous dance corps in the world, will perform on November 22, 2018 at 21.00 at Spoleto’s Teatro Nuovo “Gian Carlo Menotti”.
Who does not know the fairy tale of the beautiful princess who falls asleep for a hundred years victim of a curse launched by the evil witch? The story of Aurora, Prince Desiré and the Lilac fairy, so dear to children, are at the heart of one of the ballet masterpieces of the nineteenth century, Sleeping Beauty.
Among the Ballet Masterpieces of the nineteenth century, Sleeping Beauty represents the top of classical expression, in an atmosphere of abstraction, with more emphasis on pure dance than on narration. With its fabulous and enchanted sets and costumes, the wonderful music by P.I. TCajkovskij and choreography by Marius Petipa, Sleeping Beauty is considered one of the greatest ballets of Imperial Russia and one of the most enchanting productions of the St. Petersburg Ballet.

LA DOMENICA DEI SOGNI – Teatro Famiglia
SUNDAY OF DREAMS – Family Theatre
Conceived by Vincenzo Cerami
Sunday 16 December 2018
Teatro Nuovo Gian Carlo Menotti, 4.30 p.m.
THE TOY SHOP
CREST – Coop. teatrale
with Delia De Marco, Valentina Elia, Giuseppe Marzio
text and direction Sandra Novellino and Delia De Marco
The story happens in a toy shop that, as in children’s imagination, come alive and come to life. And, just like it happens in real life, there is a more beautiful doll, an envious one, a teddy bear who falls in love, a jealous soldier, and carousels and little cars that always turn around! A parallel world that helps children experience emotions, switching from joy to disappointment, from melancholy to happiness, from love to resentment. The show is aimed at younger children; it is the result of many years of experience in kindergartens, looking for the most effective theatrical language to address to such a particular and demanding audience.
Tickets and subscriptions
children and young people up to 18 years free of charge
single entrance € 6,00 (adults only)
Duration of shows: about 60 minutes
Ticket purchase: the day of the show 15.45-16.30
