As the eighth episode of the first season of Bedtime Stories and Fairy Tales, The Sleeping Beauty tells the story of a young princess named Aurora who is cursed by an evil fairy and falls into a deep sleep that can only be broken by true love's kiss.
The episode begins with the birth of Princess Aurora and the celebration that takes place in honor of her arrival. Guests from far and wide come to the castle to bestow gifts upon the newborn princess, including several fairy godmothers who bestow her with gifts of beauty, kindness, and intelligence.
However, just as the last fairy godmother is about to give her gift, an evil fairy named Maleficent appears uninvited and curses Aurora, saying that on her sixteenth birthday she will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and die. The only way to break the curse is for someone to awaken her with true love's kiss.
Aurora's parents, the king and queen, are devastated and try everything in their power to prevent the curse from coming true. They destroy all the spinning wheels in the kingdom and send Aurora away to live in the woods with the three good fairy godmothers disguised as peasant women.
Despite their efforts, on Aurora's sixteenth birthday, she finds herself drawn to a mysterious tower in the woods where she finds a spindle and ultimately pricks her finger, falling into a deep sleep. The three fairy godmothers then place her in a tower and put a spell on the kingdom so everyone falls asleep for one hundred years until true love's kiss can awaken Aurora.
Fast forward one hundred years, a prince named Phillip hears the story of Aurora and sets out on a quest to rescue her. Along the way, he meets the three good fairy godmothers and is given the magical weapons he needs to defeat Maleficent and break the curse. He finds Aurora, who is still fast asleep, and gives her true love's kiss. She awakens, and they live happily ever after.
The Sleeping Beauty is a classic fairy tale that has been told and retold in various forms for centuries.
