The Dunedin Repertory Society Children's Theatre Presents The Sleeping Beauty
July 4th — 12th, 2026
Playhouse Theatre, 31 Albany Street, Dunedin
Sleeping Beauty: A story of love, magic and just a little chaos!
It is Sleeping Beauty, Princess Briar Rose’s sixteenth birthday and something has got her in a tantrum. Her father hasn’t seen anything like it since the terrible twos. There hasn’t been so much drama at the palace since Maleficent the 13th fairy, gate-crashed Briar Rose’s christening and put her evil curse on her.
A succession of comic Princes and Princesses are all in search of a life partner, and only some magical intervention from the Lilac Fairy can sort out the chaos. And as for Briar Rose – she always knew her Prince would come – even if it did take a hundred years!
