Auditions for The Sleeping Beauty - Mandurah Performing Arts Centre
Tue, 16 Sept 2008, 10:38 amA sleeping Princess, a spellbound Prince and more Fairies than you can shake a wand at are all part of this quirky adaptation of the popular tale. An evil fairy, the Trollarina, exacts her revenge on the royal family by sending the beautiful Princess Melisande into an everlasting sleep, but little does she realise more than one spell is about to be broken by the kiss of an enchanted Faun who turns out to be more than what he seems...
