Disney proudly invites you to ‘Be Our Guest’ as the most enchanted musical of all time, Beauty and the Beast, comes to Edinburgh Playhouse! Disney’s Beauty and the Beast is coming to Scotland’s capital this Autumn from Thursday 21st October to Saturday 27th November 2021
Disney first debuted Beauty and the Beast on Broadway 26 years ago in 1994, before having its UK premiere at London’s Dominion Theatre in 1997, winning the 1998 Olivier Award for Best Musical. UK Productions then toured the musical from 2001. The original creative team have now reunited on this new production that features all of the spellbinding music from Alan Menken, lyrics by Howard Ashman and Tim Rice and a book by Linda Wolverton.
The new tour will commence at Curve Leicester for a reported five-week run before touring to Dublin, Bristol, Liverpool and Edinburgh.
Based on the award-winning Disney animated feature of the same name, Beauty and the Beast follows the story of a young prince, imprisoned in the form of a Beast, who can be freed only by true love. What may be his only opportunity arrives when he meets Belle, the only human girl to ever visit the castle since it was enchanted. Spectacularly reimagined using the latest theatrical innovations, this beloved ‘tale as old as time’ will be brought to life on stage like never before…
So why not “Be our guest” for the night when you go to see this magical stage production with a luxury overnight stay at Le Monde Hotel in one of our 18 individually designed stylish bedrooms which are inspired by the world’s most exciting cosmopolitan cities.
