Beauty and the Beast- The Pantomime

1 December 2022

Beauty and the Beast- the Pantomime

 

The beloved, romantic story of a young girl and a bewitched prince, in a Tale as Old as Time...

 

Oh, and a cross-dressing Ma and a giant French Poodle called Felix (every panto should have one)! And a nasty baddie! Every panto has to have one. (Well, spoiler, the beast isn't bad really, is he!)

 

Join the gang for French fun and frolics (for as long as the accents hold up) as Rose and brother Jacques hopelessly try to train Felix - who has some curiously human traits - and meet uber-strong blacksmith Capucine.

 After uber-mean witch Malabelle takes being spurned by the uber-handsome Prince (you wait for ages then 3 Ubers come together!) out on the local village, the story takes Ma and then Rose through the dark forest to a remote castle full of furniture - also with some notably human traits - as prisoner of a shouty, but rather sad Beast!

 Can Rose see beyond the monster to save her captor? Can Ma carry off pretending to be a man(!)? Can Jacques ever overcome Felix's Poodle Power and train him to ignore a tree?

 All these vital questions will be answered in a fast-paced, fun-filled show with a fabulous live band, a cast of... lots, 3 (yes 3!) weddings, and fantastic song favourites to singalong with: 500 Miles, Let It Go, Dancing in the Street, Careless Whisper (complete with live sax!) and lots more. 

 Come along! You know you want to... oh yes you do! 

 It's just the best start to the festive period you could wish upon a star for!

I have played at Birnam Arts as part of Blow and Blast for a number of years and never cease to be amazed by how many activities take place there - too valuable to lose!
