The Sleeping Beauty with National Ballet of Canada
Went to see The Sleeping Beauty with Ori. Everything was amazing. It took us a while to figure out the story of Sleeping Beauty. The one with the beast? Nope! The one with the dwarfs? Nope! The one with the long hair? Nope! It’s the one with the needle! Ding ding ding! We probably should’ve brushed up on our fairytales and Disney Princesses.
But back to the show, the ballet was really amazing. I loved how extravagant everyone was. Especially the Lilac Fairy. She was SO good at floating around the stage. I thought she was on rollerblades for a second! The wicked witch was also pretty awesome. Her costume was quite over the top. Halloween inspiration! =]
Princess Aurora and her prince charming did an amazing Pas de Duex together. *sigh* I wish I was dancing on pointe again. Things just seem so much better with it’s on pointe!
Anyways, after the show, we crazily hurried around to get dinner. Street food? Nah. Being the crazy sushi fanatics that we are, we hit up Sushi on Bloor for some takeout goodness. Definitely ended the night with a big bang!
