Sleeping Beauty at Oxford Playhouse
22 November 2024 to 05 January 2025
About Sleeping Beauty
An Oxford Playhouse Pantomime
We all know the story of Sleeping Beauty, right?
Evil fairy curses baby, baby grows into a beautiful teenage princess, princess pricks her finger on a spindle, and… time travels across 1000 years.
Oh no, she doesn’t? Oh yes, she DOES in this spellbinding new production brought to you by Oxford Playhouse.
Aurora must summon all of her fairy-given gifts – true friendship, intelligence, bravery and a good night’s sleep (along with a teddy bear and a mysterious 1985 Smash Hits Yearbook) to put things right and regain her rightful place in the kingdom of Oxland.
Join The Playhouse from Friday, 22 November 2024, to Sunday, 05 January 2025, to see all your favourite loveable (and downright boo-able) panto heroes and villains in a toe-tapping extravaganza with a generous, deely-boppered sprinkling of 80s nostalgia.
A magical and festive experience perfect for all the family. Never mind goodnight, this is sure to be the BEST night.
Don’t hit snooze… book your tickets now for this year’s Oxford Playhouse Pantomime, Sleeping Beauty.
