Step into the enchanted world of Broadway’s modern classic! Based on the Academy-Award
winning animated feature, the stage version of Disney’s BEAUTY AND THE BEAST includes
all of the wonderful songs written by Alan Menken and the late Howard Ashman along
with new songs by Mr. Menken and Tim Rice. Your audiences will be transported to
the heart of provincial life in a lovely French town. When Maurice becomes lost in
the woods on the way to the fair, he seeks shelter in an old castle, but the master
of the castle is a horrible beast that takes him captive. Maurice’s daughter, Belle,
must then give up her freedom to save his life. Belle’s taming of the unfortunate
Beast and his ultimate transformation back into a handsome prince enthralled Broadway
audiences for over 13 years. This tale as old as time is filled with spectacular
costume and set, and offers a great opportunity to bring family theatre at its best.
