A not so great review from the Miami Herald of American Ballet Theater's performance of Sleeping Beauty.  Like the old saying goes..if its not broke don't fix it.

I wonder this myself santafejoe. They are classics for a reason. I understand the need to bring things up to date, but totally redoing something that has been a staple for so long, especially when done poorly, just infuriates me.

Let us know if you go see it and tell us what you think.
