Production details
Beauty And The Beast is a dramatic pantomime full of song and dance, traditional slapstick, corny jokes and general silliness, it contains wonderfully colourful characters who will take you on a magical journey into pantoland...... Our beautiful heroine, Belle, lives in the village of Yeastville with her impoverished father Mr Cobb the baker and her older sisters Chardonnay and Lambrini, both of whom are mean and ugly. You will meet the vain and egotistical Victor Vandare and the spoiled but good-natured Prince Rupert who both have designs on Belle. We see the good Fairy Rosebud make a bet with the evil Witch Greenfly that she could make any two people fall in love, Rosebud chooses Belle and Greenfly chooses Prince Rupert, however when Belle and the Prince meet, sparks start to fly. Afraid she will lose her bet Greenfly uses her evil magic and turns the Prince into a hideous snarling Beast. Join Crouton the dough boy, Mrs Potts the housekeeper, Gaston the Beast's servant and all the villagers (Whoops, I almost forgot....And Kingsmill the Pantomime Horse) in this wonderful traditional pantomime which will warm even the coldest of hearts.
