In one of classical ballet's most celebrated, multifaceted, and difficult roles, Aurora matures over the course of the ballet, growing froman effervescent teenager sizing up suitors at her 16th birthday party, to an ethereal vision conjured to draw the prince to her bedside, and finally, to a bride, regal and self-assured. It's a fiercely demanding role set to Tschaikovsky's soaring score that requires persuasive acting skills and formidable technique.
