A tale as old as a time, Beauty and the Beast is a story that was made for the stage. We all know it by now; a girl (that’ll be Belle) from a provincial town in search of more, a terrifying beast (that’ll be Beast) holed up in a castle, the two on a collision course towards happily ever after. How do they get there? How did the Prince become a Beast? The answers to these questions are out there, but the musical version of Beauty and the Beast is a thrilling experience no matter how often you have heard the story.
