Beauty and the Beast

A foolish prince cursed to a life alone in a castle; a kind and beautiful girl who asks her father for nothing but a rose. One must learn to love and be loved in return, the other needs to realise there’s more than meets the eye. It’s a tale of magic, compassion and love, full of enchanting characters, marvellous musical numbers and some deliciously scary moments, guaranteed to delight the whole family. You may think you know the story of Beauty and the Beast, but director Dale Rooks has a few surprises in store in this brand new version by Chichester Festival Youth Theatre.
