Review: The Sleeping Beauty at Lyric Theatre, QPAC

The Sleeping Beauty, performed at Lyric Theatre, QPAC, was a delightful evening where the audience enjoyed the retelling of an age old tale with some of the finest talent in Queensland. This performance was a fantastic comeback for Queensland Ballet after a long 2020 made longer with the onset of COVID-19. Neneka Yoshida, who was promoted to Principal Artist in Queensland Ballet this year, took the stage as Princess Aurora on opening night and was completely majestic in her role.
