The ballet show that “lights up” Valencia: for a limited time only at the Teatre La Plazeta

Sleeping Beauty has been falling asleep and waking up since the 14th century. A French narrative was followed by a Catalan poem and Charles Perrault’s version, then by the one published by the Brothers Grimm and that of Roinson Planché and Richard Doyle. There’s something about Aurora that makes the centuries seem to stand still in her story, making it a perfect work to be performed amid pirouettes and pliés to Tchaikovsky’s unforgettable music.

If you’re thinking of a classical ballet performance, yes… but no. Or, at least, not just that. Ballet of Lights is a live dance performance where timeless fairy tales like Sleeping Beauty or Cinderella are brought to life through pirouettes and pliés. And they do so in the most luminous way possible, thanks to the dancers’ costumes, which are covered in countless points of light, filling the stage with pure brilliance (both real and metaphorical).

Cities around the world already know what it’s like to experience Ballet of Lights firsthand. And, naturally, Valencia is among them. An experience that its audience members have praised with comments such as:

Ballet of Lights arrives in Valencia with a production that aims to captivate us with a luminous staging, impeccable dance, and unforgettable stories. We’ll be able to experience this on select dates at the iconic Teatre La Plazeta, which is wheelchair accessible and whose doors will open 30 minutes before the show begins.
