Director Ruth Novak Auditions for young actors ages 8 - 18
No prior acting experience needed.
Sleeping Beauty/Briar Rose
The King and Queen long to have a child and heir to the throne, and, aided by Erda, the forest fairy, their wish is granted. For the celebration of Princess Rose’s birth, the King invites a number of fairies, but not Erda. Angered, Erda places a curse on Rose that, on her 16th birthday, Rose will prick her hand on a spindle and fall dead. The other fairies soften the curse by declaring she will simply sleep for a hundred years. The King will not allow Rose to leave the castle walls in fear of her death. As Rose grows, so does her curiosity. She meets Erda, who attempts to help her understand the wider world. On her 16th birthday, Rose pricks her hand and falls into a deep sleep. As she sleeps, she dreams, and her dreams begin to answer her life-long questions.
