| The beginning of Disney's reign on Broadway, Beauty and the Beast recently celebrated its 12th birthday, and shows no signs of slowing down. Adapted from the now-classic Oscar-nominated animated film of the same name, Beauty and the Beast tells the story of Belle, a young French girl fed up with provincial life, who longs to experience the world-at-large. When her father, Maurice, takes a wrong turn one day, Belle gets her wish, and soon encounters the Beast, a former prince placed under a magical spell because he could not love. Bolstered by Alan Menken, Howard Ashman, and Tim Rice's now famous score, Beauty and the Beast takes a traditional tale and renews it with magic and charm. | |||||
