Emma Lorraine plays Belle in
Disney's "Beauty and the Beast.
|
The cast and crew of SummerStock presents Disney’s “Beauty and the
Beast” July 26-30 at The University of Findlay in the John and Hester
Powell Grimm Theatre.
Based on the Academy Award-winning animated feature, the stage version
of Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast” includes all of the wonderful songs
from the film, written by Alan Menken and the late Howard Ashman plus
new songs written especially for the Broadway version by Menken and
Rice.
Audiences will be transported to a lovely French provincial town where
the beautiful Belle lives with her father – a dotty inventor. When her
father doesn’t return from a trip to the local fair, Belle rushes off
to find him. To her dismay, she discovers he is being held captive in
an old castle by a horrible beast. She trades her freedom for his and
the “tale as old as time” begins. How Belle tames the unfortunate Beast
and his ultimate transformation into a handsome prince continues to
enthrall audiences on Broadway nightly.
The show will run July 26-29 at 8 p.m.; July 29 at 2 p.m. and July 30
at 6 p.m. Contact the box office at 419-434-5335 for ticket information.
SummerStock at The University of Findlay has been setting the standard
for professional theatre in northwest Ohio since 1977. SummerStock uses
a core professional company and supplements with an adjunct company of
undergraduate interns and high school apprentices.
