Emily and her wooden pull string ballerina. |
Emily and I were taken to our seats,
The costuming was absolutely beautiful,
as were the stars of the show.
from scene to scene without a flaw.

Set design before the show began. |
It made all of us feel as if we were deep in a fairy kingdom,
set beneath the roots of a giant tree.
to the music of Peter Tchaikovsky and followed the flow of the fairy wings that adorned some of the ballerinas’ elegant costumes.
Sleeping Beauty preformed as a ballet.
It was great that the ballet was just one hour long,
just long enough to hold the children’s attention.
There was a great introduction before the show started.
Finally, I thought the ballet was easy for the children to
follow and understand.

Emily at the ballet. It’s more of a casual ballet, but my daughter will never pass up a chance to wear a dress! |
This was the second ballet that I have gone to at the
New York Theatre ballet,
but I have a feeling it won’t be the last.
There is no time like the present to enjoy
the ballet with someone you love
and make memories that will last a lifetime.
Although this ballet was specialized for children,
there were many adults there, as well.
By the sound of the loud clapping at the end of the ballet,
I would have to say that everyone,
children and adults had a wonderful time.
I know that Emily and I did.
