Shubert Theatre

New Haven Ballet Presents The Sleeping Beauty at the Shubert Theatre
This spring, New Haven Ballet invites audiences across Greater New Haven to experience the magic of classical ballet with The Sleeping Beauty, coming to the historic Shubert Theatre on Saturday, May 23 at 1:00 p.m.
Perfect for young audiences and longtime dance lovers alike, this enchanting production brings Princess Aurora’s beloved story to life through storybook magic and the sweeping score of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Thoughtfully adapted for today’s audiences, the performance offers a welcoming introduction to ballet while keeping all the beauty and wonder that has made this fairytale a classic for generations.
The heart of this production is the dancers themselves.
Students ages 4 to 18 will take the stage after months of dedication and artistic growth, sharing a performance that celebrates not only technique, but creativity, confidence, and joy. For many young performers, it’s a meaningful milestone and a chance to experience the excitement of live theater together.
For more than 40 years, New Haven Ballet has helped young dancers grow both on and off the stage, with many students continuing on to prestigious summer intensives, conservatories, and professional dance careers.
In addition to The Sleeping Beauty, the program will feature contemporary and Broadway inspired works, along with performances by the School’s Shared Ability artists. Together, the pieces reflect New Haven Ballet’s commitment to creating a space where every dancer can learn, grow, and shine.
Artistic Director Lisa Kim shares, “This performance is a chance for our students to come together and share what they have been working toward all year. We hope it inspires everyone in the audience.”
Following the performance, children and families are invited to meet the fairies from the ballet, a magical moment younger audience members won’t soon forget.
With a running time of approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes, including a 20-minute intermission, the performance is ideal for both first time balletgoers and devoted fans of dance.
Tickets start at $19 (plus ticketing fees) and are available at <a href="https://shubert.com/?utm_source=chatgpt.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">shubert.com</a>.
New Haven Ballet welcomes new students throughout the year, with summer programs offering dancers of all levels the opportunity to learn, grow, and build confidence through dance.
Reserve your tickets early and join us for an afternoon filled with music, magic, and the joy of live performance.

Southbury Food Bank is partnering with Sustainable Southbury for a community bottle and can collection fundraiser on Sunday, June 7, from 12:00–2:00 p.m. at 800 Main Street South, Southbury. Please note: We have a new location in the parking lot behind the 800 building. Enter: driveway on the right side of the 800 building. Exit: at the traffic light.
For 44 years, the Southbury Food Bank has provided food assistance with dignity and respect to eligible local households through its client-choice food assistance program. As a small independent nonprofit, the organization depends on donations, grants, and community support to serve more than 350 individuals each week with nonperishable food, fresh produce, dairy products, eggs, frozen protein, and essential hygiene items. Proceeds from this fundraiser will directly support the Food Bank’s daily assistance programs.
Please note that EyeRecycle requires aluminum cans to be bagged separately from plastic bottles. Plastic bottles must be pre-sorted by size: under 1 liter, 1 liter, and 2 liters. Glass bottles should be packed in cardboard boxes to help prevent breakage. Participants using EyeRecycle bags with pre-sorted recyclables may use the express lane for quick drop-off and payment. Empty inkjet printer cartridges (not laser cartridges) will also be accepted.
If you do not have an EyeRecycle bag, volunteers will assist in transferring recyclables into approved bags for counting. Bags cost 50 cents each and may be purchased at the event, through EyeRecycle, or at Sustainable Southbury events. Please note there is a five-bag limit for this event.
