A fairytale musical with K3
Last May, the fairytale musical Doornroosje premiered at the Studio 100 Theater in Plopsaland De Panne. In this revamped version, the ladies of K3 play the three good fairies. We went to see the show and tell you everything you need to know.
Tickets and packages
If you want to see the musical, bear in mind that admission to the show is not included in a regular ticket for Plopsaland Belgium or in a Plopsa season pass.
Tickets for the musical are available separately online. There are also various packages available, for example combined with an overnight stay and park admission, or just the musical with an overnight stay.
The foyer of the Studio 100 Theater
The show is performed at the Studio 100 Theater. In the foyer, you'll already be fully in the mood.
Merchandise is on sale, you can have your photo taken with a themed bed from the musical, and you can grab something to eat or drink before the show starts.
Good to know: you can also visit the foyer without a ticket for the musical. That way you can still soak up the atmosphere or browse the merchandise.
The story of Doornroosje
The story follows the well-known fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty. The whole kingdom is celebrating, because a little princess has been born. During the birth celebration, the three good fairies bestow their wishes on the child, but the party is rudely interrupted by the arrival of the wicked fairy.
She casts a curse: on her eighteenth birthday, Doornroosje will prick her finger on a spinning wheel and die soon after. Can the three good fairies stop the curse in time?
What did we think?
The musical has a strong cast, including Diede van den Heuvel in the lead role as Doornroosje and Manu Van Acker and Free Souffriau as her parents. The show is packed with cheerful songs, humour and surprising effects. That makes it fun not just for children, but for adults too.
We laughed out loud several times. As far as we're concerned, this musical is definitely recommended for families and for anyone who feels nostalgic about the original production of this show.

A revamped version of a Studio 100 classic
More than twenty years ago, the original K3 line-up already starred in Doornroosje. This new version has been updated for today. The show has been made a little shorter and snappier, and some details have been changed.
Personally, we didn't find those changes bothersome. In fact, this version really does the original justice.
Good to know!
Since Saturday 23 May, Marthe has been temporarily replaced by former K3 member Klaasje Meijer. She is temporarily taking over the role while Marthe is on maternity leave. For many K3 fans, that gives the show an extra special touch.
Doornroosje, De Musical runs until the end of the summer holidays at the Studio 100 Theater in Plopsaland De Panne. Extra shows have also been added on 27 June and 23 August.
