lime kiln theaterThe Traveling Players Ensemble returns to Lime Kiln Theater on Saturday, Aug. 11, with a family-friendly performance of Sleeping Beauty. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., and the show starts at 7:30.

Traveling Players presents Sleeping Beauty, an original adaptation of the classic fairy tale, using masks, acrobatics, and physical comedy. When a fairy is left off the guest list of a princess’ birthday party, she curses the young princess out of spite. Can the other fairies, the king and queen, and a dashing (he thinks) prince break the curse… or will she sleep forever?

Selected as a “Summer School in the Arts” by the NEA, Traveling Players Ensemble is a not-for-profit professional theater company in the Washington, D.C. area, dedicated to bringing great theater into the great outdoors through a thriving summer camp and year-round acting classes and workshops. The ensemble will be returning to Lime Kiln Theater for the fifth straight summer, following performances of Twelfth Night in 2014, All’s Well That Ends Well in 2015, The Tempest in 2016 and The Frog Prince in 2017.

Lime Kiln Arts, Inc. is a non-profit (501c3), operating at Lime Kiln Theater in Lexington. It opened in 1984 and is rooted in and inspired by the magic of a natural, outdoor theater. After a brief hiatus that started in 2012, Lime Kiln Theater is thrilled to present its fifth straight summer season of live music and theater featuring local, regional and national acts.
