The Tale of Sleeping Beauty is one of the world’s oldest and most revered fairy tales… and it has just been hijacked by a company of crazy bird puppets, The Starlings. Making their NWCT Mainstage debut, these feathered friends will stop at nothing in their quest to seize the spotlight and re-write history. Not only will The Starlings appear onstage to tell the story, but also in, around, and all over NWCT. Sprung from the mind of (and hand-crafted by) NWCT Associate Artistic Director, designer, fabricator and actor John Ellingson, The Starlings will not nest, er… rest… until their version of the story is told. Oh, and you just might catch them running lights and sound, taking tickets, ushering, or selling concessions. Get ready to truly see the story of Sleeping Beauty unfold… from a bird’s eye view. Most enjoyed by ages 5 & up.
