Founded in 1993 by Anne Ware and Peter Schaefer, Tanglewood Marionettes is a nationally touring marionette theater based in New England. Their repertoire consists primarily of classic tales performed by skilled puppeteers who have spent many years perfecting their art.

A classic tale which appeals to children of all ages, 'Sleeping Beauty' begins in King Felix's great hall for the christening of Princess Aurora. The party goes awry when the wicked witch arrives and curses Princess Aurora. Will the curse come true? Will someone with a 'true heart' appear?

In this retelling, a painted story book opens to reveal each scene. Beautifully hand-crafted marionettes are brought to life by a master puppeteer as the dramatic events unfold. Children will also enjoy a lively puppetry demonstration prior to the show and a chance to ask questions about the marionettes. Appropriate for children over the age of 4.
