DISNEY’S BEAUTY AND THE BEAST includes all the wonderful songs of Disney’s Academy-Award winning animated feature, brought magically to life on stage. Be transported to the heart of a provincial village and follow the tale as beautiful Belle comes to rescue her father, Maurice, from an enchanted castle and the Beast that lives within. Belle agrees to remain at the castle if her father can go free. But what happens when the Beast eventually allows Belle to return to her father? What happens when Belle’s suitor, the vain Gaston, realizes that the Beast is a rival for Belle’s affections and leads the villagers on a siege of the castle? Will the wicked enchantment that encircles the castle and its inhabitants ever be broken? Be our guest and experience this classic “tale as old as time.”

The timeless enchantment of a magical fairy tale is reborn with Rodgers & Hammerstein’s hallmarks of originality, charm, and elegance. Travel to a miraculous kingdom of dreams-come-true as Cinderella endures the cruelty of her wicked step-mother and ridiculous step-sisters. They can take away everything that Cinderella has in the world, but they can never take away her dreams and wishes, in particular a wish to go to the Royal Ball and dance with the Prince. Will Cinderella’s Fairy Godmother grant her wish? What happens at the stroke of midnight? Will the glass slipper fit anyone but its rightful owner? Adapted for the stage with great warmth and several doses of hilarity, the hearts of children and adults alike will soar for this extraordinary girl and her adventure of love.
