Be Our Guest at Disney’s newly reimagined 30th Anniversary production of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, the breathtaking musical filled with the romance and grandeur audiences know and love.
This enchanting and timeless tale has been brought to life like never before, with spectacular new sets and dazzling costumes. The show boasts the Oscar®-winning and Tony Award®-nominated score, including the classic songs “Be Our Guest” and “Beauty and the Beast.”
Reuniting to create this new production are members of the original Tony Award®-winning artistic team, including composer Alan Menken, lyricist Tim Rice, book writer Linda Woolverton, with direction and choreography by Olivier Award nominee Matt West, scenic design by Stanley A. Meyer, costume design by Ann Hould-Ward and lighting design by Natasha Katz.
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST is the beloved musical that will fill your heart with joy and Disney magic.
This is family entertainment the Disney way, if a tad under populated. A chorus line of 12 doesn’t fill a tavern or serve up a convincing phantasmagorical dinner scene for “Be Our Guest,” no matter how many times the hard working dancers change costumes. But West’s tap dance extravaganza, a new number for this tour, works overtime to entertain us and eventually succeeds with giant forks and spoons rolled on stage, dinner plates rimmed with lights, everybody hoofin’ up a storm, and a streamer cannonade at the finale. It would be a great end to Act I. But no, it goes on.
Whether you’re a millennial like me who grew up watching the original Disney film or you’re looking to take young kids to their first musical, this is a wonderful choice. It’s a visual marvel full of Disney magic. This talented cast bring these canonical characters to the stage in a way that pays homage to the source but also allows their personalities and talents to shine.
