Beauty and the Beast—Live on Stage

Beauty and the Beast—Live on Stage Review

This wildly popular stage show takes place at the Theater of the Stars, a re-creation of the famed Hollywood Bowl. The actors playing a luminous Belle and delightfully vain Gaston sing with passion with a lively cast of characters and dancers. The enchanted prince (Beast) and household items (Mrs. Potts, Chip, Lumiere, and Cogsworth) deftly navigate the stage despite their bulky costumes. Even some set pieces sway along during the charming "Be Our Guest" number. There's high drama during the mob scene and a sweet ending when ballroom dancers in frothy pink and purple waltz along with the fairy-tale couple.
