Beauty and the Beast

The Beast!

Beauty and the Beast is the story of a young prince who is caught up in a battle between good and evil. Magically transformed into a Beast, he is cursed to live alone in his castle until the enchantment is broken by the sacrifice of true love.

The infectious score comprises selections of music by composers including Bizet, Debussy, Fauré and Saint-Saëns, created in the art nouveau period in which the story is set. This stylish era is also reflected in the sumptuous stage sets and lavish costumes. which draw you into a fantastical realm of mythical faries, gruesome goblins and magical spells.

Running Time: 2 hours (approximately)
