Step into the enchanted world of Broadway's modern classic, DISNEY'S BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. Based on the Academy Award winning animated feature, the stage version of DISNEY'S BEAUTY AND THE BEAST includes all of the wonderful songs from the film, written by Alan Menken and the late Howard Ashman, (the team responsible for Little Shop of Horrors), plus new songs written especially for the Broadway version by Mr. Menken and Tim Rice (Aladdin, Aida).
Be transported to a lovely French provincial town where the beautiful Belle lives with her father a dotty inventor. When her father doesn't return from a trip to the local fair, Belle rushes off to find him. To her dismay, she discovers he is being held captive in an old castle by a horrible beast.
