What’s the story about?
If you haven’t seen Beauty and the Beast yet, it follows the tale of a young bookworm, Belle. Her father is taken prisoner by a monstrous beast, who was once a handsome prince but cursed by a mysterious enchantress as punishment for his selfish actions.

To lift the punishment, the prince must learn to love someone and earn their love in return.
With help from the Beast’s servants (also cursed to be household items), Beauty comes to appreciate and love the Beast.
Plot twist. The beast isn’t the only one vying for Belle’s attention as an arrogant admirer will do anything to marry Belle – even if it means killing the beast.
It may not sound like it, but as with all shows at Theatre by QE2, it’s family-friendly, and of course, there’s a happy ending.
Expect a wonderfully fun production, filled with lots of colourful costumes, unlimited love, memorable songs and the usual lashings of festive family fun.
