Beauty and the Beast

Wheelock Family Theatre, Boston

About the Show

“This is the one! The girl we have been waiting for. She has come to break the spell!”

Spunky bookworm Belle doesn’t quite conform to the dreary expectations of her small-town neighbors and self-absorbed suitor; she yearns to experience the wide world beyond her doors. The mysterious disappearance of her father catapults Belle on a magical adventure in which she meets the mysterious Beast, faces and overcomes fear, and discovers true beauty in unexpected places. Disney’s first musical for the stage brings this classic fairy tale to life with spectacular production numbers and the memorable songs of Alan Menken, Howard Ashman, and Tim Rice. Disney’s Beauty and the Beast is animated by the profound message, “stay true to yourself.”
