Sleeping Beauty: family pantomime (opening night)

Help the fairies outwit a birthday curse

Princess Aurora faces a spinning-wheel curse before her eighteenth birthday, and the Good Fairies have to soften Carabosse's spell. Buttercross Theatre Productions turns the tale into a family pantomime with comedy, musical numbers and audience participation, giving children plenty to join in with as the story unfolds.

Colourful costumes and fairy magic make this a traditional seasonal theatre outing for all ages. This is the opening-night family performance, separate from the relaxed and adults-only versions.

Both venue entrances are step-free and the main hall has level access. Contact the venue to reserve wheelchair space for the seated show, and check parking restrictions if you use Woolgate Car Park a short walk away. The S1 and S2 buses connect Oxford city centre with Market Square.

Ticketed. Book ahead and arrange any access requirements with the venue.
