A friend of my family played the Beast when this toured. I was too young to remember it, but my brother got to go back stage and watch him transform fromt he Beast to the Prince.
The cast and crew of this play say that it was hard to keep up and stay on schedule. Well, when you think about how long it took Disney to FINALLY make it's own version of "Beauty and the Beast", I think the cast and crew were all moving pretty fast.
Walt Disney wanted to make his own version of "Beauty and the Beast" back in 1937 right after making "Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs", but he could never figure it out. It took the talents of Howard Ashman and Alan Mankin to accomplish such a task.
well, in the movie interviews, the actors did say that all the actors and actresses that were auditioning were all from the theatre, not from film. they even said that the producers wanted the movie to have a broadway show feeling.
Robby Benson was the Beast in the Disney movie edition and I find it so cool that he's narratoring the behind the Scenes look at he the musical version!!!!
Ahhhh! Beauty and the Beast...I'm so depressed that I never got to see this on broadway before it closed =*( yeah the tour is coming to SoCal but visually I have heard and see that it is a let down....Please broadway give us a revival!!!!!
@phantom4evr101 Actually it's been brought back to Broadway and is on tour. I recently saw it and liked it! They say it's been downgraded a little mainly in sets and costumes, they aren't as detailed. The original sets and costumes were disposed of when the show closed in 2007. To remake all that detailed stuff would be expensive and in this economy expensive is not a good word. I'm just happy it's back! I enjoyed it!
P.S. If money gets better maybe they'll be able to add more to it.
is there any way you could send me a low-res avi file of this?? It's blowing my mind. Basically, BATB is the reason why I do theater today. Just wondering! Thanks Liz (liz.wal@gmail.com)
