The Alaska Junior Theater is proud to present “Sleeping Beauty” performed by, Grandmaster Storyteller David Gonzales, on December 7, 2019 at 2:00PM in the Atwood Concert Hall.
David Gonzalez returns with this visually stunning multimedia retelling of “Sleeping Beauty”. A rhymed-verse spin on the classic fairytale with live music and image projections that create a magical multimedia world in which our beautiful (and funky) princess is awakened by true love’s kiss.. .or not.
David uses his street-style humor, the limitless landscape of imagination, kinetic storytelling with live music, mesmerizing video projection and audience participation to captivate all ages with this multifaceted version of a childhood favorite.
David’s last time in Alaska was to perform “Aesop Bops” for sold-out crowds in 2015. He will be joined on stage by accomplished pianist, Daniel Kelly, performing selections of Bach’s “Goldberg Variations”.
While in Alaska, David and Daniel will perform for over 5,000 students at field trip shows, lead three workshops and perform the December 7th public show.
Get your tickets to the December 7th performance of “Sleeping Beauty” in the words of David Gonzalez at 263-ARTS or at www.akjt.org.
