This time-honored fairy tale is brought to life in the poetic physical form of ballet. Few stories are so ideally told through the medium of classic dance as this, a story of beauty, love and jealousy. Music by Tchaikovsky provides wordless subtitles, while careful choreography pulls viewers through the love and longing of princess Rose. Fri 7:30 p.m.; Sat-Sun 2 p.m., 7:30 p.m.
