Production images are released today for the National Theatre’s new musical Hex, which is based on the story of Sleeping Beauty and will play on the NT’s biggest stage this Christmas.
A vividly original retelling of Sleeping Beauty, Hex is a mythic, big-hearted musical that goes beyond the waking kiss. When the fairy is summoned to the palace to help the princess sleep, her spell becomes a curse, and she is plunged into a hundred-year quest to make everything right.
Hex will play in the Olivier theatre from 26 November until 14 January and is recommended for ages 8+.
