A timeless family favorite, Disney’s BEAUTY AND THE BEAST tells the story of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is a young prince trapped under the spell of an enchantress. All of the fanciful characters, such as Cogsworth, Lumiere and Mrs. Potts are also trapped in this spellbound form until the Beast can learn to love and have his love returned. Showcasing spectacular costumes and scenery, this show is based on the Academy Award-winning animated feature, with songs including “Be Our Guest”, “Gaston” and of course “Beauty and the Beast.” This “tale as old as time,” reminds us to look beyond one’s exterior and find the beauty from within. We invite you to be our guest as this beloved Disney classic comes to life on stage!
