Disney’s Beauty and the
Beast is appearing on Walnut Street
Theatre’s main stage through December 31, 2023. It is an absolute joy. Audiences of all ages will be delighted with over
fifteen musical numbers, many of which are accompanied by charming choreography
and costumes. There are several big production numbers, including “Gaston” in a
tavern, and “Be Our Guest” , “Human
Again” and “Beauty and the Beast”, all taking
place in the Beast’s castle. As amazing as
viewing silverware and plates dance and salt and pepper shakers cavorting
across the stage is, this is not the most incredible portion of the show. Disney’s Beauty and
the Beast begins with a fairy tale book projection, then the curtain of
Walnut’s very deep stage opens up to reveal a scene from Belle’s provincial French
town. The curtain rises again when Belle’s father goes into the woods then yet
again when he is attacked by wolves and asks for asylum and appears in the
Beast’s castle. There is still another room in the castle that can be shown and
simultaneously a curtain falls, and everyone is taken back to the town. There
are frequent scene changes and the ease in which this is done and the seamless change
in backdrops is breathtaking. Come and see this very talented all-star cast.
