Sleeping Beauty to premiere at the Akron Civic Theatre
Children’s Ballet Theatre (CBT), under the artistic direction of Christine
Meneer
is pleased to present the premiere of Sleeping Beauty at the Akron Civic
Theatre
for three performances, May 6–7.  With a brilliant score by Tchaikovsky,
Sleeping
Beauty is considered to be one of the greatest ballets from Imperial Russia.
This ballet is sure to hold the attention of both young and old as the
classic
fairy tale comes to life. With choreography by Meneer, after Marius Petipa,
this
dazzling performance will be brought to life by a highly talented cast of
dancers.  The exquisite artistry of the costumes and luxurious sets will
provide
the perfect framework for the dancers as they bring this wonderful story of
the
birth of a princess and the spell of an evil fairy to life in this must-see
performance.  World renowned dancer/choreographer, Jerry Burr has been
requisitioned to help with the staging and acting – a key element in the
telling
of this wonderfully creative tale.

Children’s Ballet Theatre will be dedicating the premiere of Sleeping Beauty
to
Mr. Paul A. Daum, Ph.D.  He served as Treasurer on CBT’s Board of Trustees
for
eight years and his sudden death in March 2005 was a great loss to CBT as
well as
the Akron community.  Mr. Daum’s endowment to Children’s Ballet Theatre,
plus
generous support from The Margaret Clark Morgan Foundation, GAR Foundation
and
the Ohio Arts Council, have allowed CBT’s dream of a new ballet to become a
reality.
Jennifer Moll, CBT alumni, will dance the title role of Sleeping Beauty.
Her
Prince will be danced by Jurijs Safonovs. Both dancers are with Virginia
Ballet
Theatre.  Kelly Meneer will portray the evil fairy Carabosse and Eric
Carvill,
Damien Highfield, and Brian Murphy from Ohio Ballet will also be featured.
CBT
soloist dancers include Sunita Joshi (Lilac Fairy), Elizabeth Watson (Fairy
of
Beauty) and CBT alumnus Lily Armington (Fairy of Happiness).

CBT will present three performances of Sleeping Beauty: Saturday, May 6 at
2:00pm
and 7:00pm; Sunday, May 7 at 2:00pm. Ticket prices are $20, $16 and $13 and
are

CBT

early to
shop at the ballet boutique and have your picture taken with Sleeping
Beauty.  If
