As a young girl, you’re taught through fairy tales that one day a handsome prince will come along, take one look at you, fall madly in love and then pluck you from misfortune for a lifetime of happily-ever-after. While this theory proves believable to children, most of us seasoned millennials know that it’s all a steaming load of crap. But, oh how the kids eat it up! Treat these sweet, untainted minds to a showing of real little actors as they portray the tale of love, sleep and evil witch-magic in Sleeping Beauty, compliments of the Broadway on Tour Children’s Theatre. There, you can gaze upon the hopeful faces in attendance and reminisce about a time, not too long ago, when you believed in happy endings.
