Mobile’s Playhouse in the Park will present an all-new original staging of the favorite Beauty and the Beast at the Saenger Theater in on March 4 & 5 in downtown Mobile at 6 Joachim Street.
Beauty and the Beast is a beloved classic French fairy tale about Belle, a lovely maiden who promises her allegiance to a frightening, lonely beast in order to save her father's life.
A cast of 100 local youth ranging from age 6 – 20s will perform this original production with music and lyrics by Managing Director Danny Mollise and Musical Director Scott Jolly. The Playhouse original musical version takes place in antebellum New Orleans with a Mardi Gras theme. The story teaches us not to judge people based upon looks and first impressions, but to look within. As the story unfolds, the Beast’s truer, inner beauty is ultimately uncovered through Belle’s love, patience, and sacrifice.
