The story of “Sleeping Beauty” revolves around the curse of the evil fairy Carabosse, slighted at the christening, and the eventual triumph of Good over Evil. Though the story covers 118 years, the narrative is linked by the Minstrel narrator, who keeps the action moving quickly. The comedy is carried by the outrageous Nanny Fanny Cranny, and Pickles the Page. The shoiw is full of knock-about and verbal humour, loads of audience participation, and several set piece routines including a battle between Beauty’s toys and Carabosse, the toys protecting Beauty as she sleeps.
