SYNOPSIS
Beautiful Belle dreams of living the adventures she reads about in her books. When she becomes the prisoner of a monstrous beast, her hapless father and best friends Brie and Dame Bonnie Baguette must rescue her from his clutches and from his collection of enchanted objects! However, the beast was once a handsome yet vain prince cursed by a wicked enchantress; doomed to remain a monster until he learned to love. If he could have a change of heart before the final rose petal fell, the spell would be broken...but who could ever learn to love a beast?
This beauty of a pantomime is an all new 'tale as old as time'.
