Photos: The Colorado Ballet debuts The Sleeping Beauty tonight
Well before it was a Disney cartoon, the story of a beautiful princess cursed by an evil witch to sleep for a hundred years, then awakened by the kiss of a handsome prince, was told through dance: The Sleeping Beauty was first performed as a ballet in 1890. And dancers have been charming audiences ever since.

On Thursday, October 4, the Colorado Ballet performed a sneak peak dress rehearsal of their own, grand version of The Sleeping Beauty at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House.
