Description:

Step into the enchanted world of Disney's modern classic, Disney's Beauty and the Beast JR. The story tells of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped under the spell of an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed into his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity. This "tale as old as time" is filled with spectacular storytelling and is family theatre at its best.

Based on the Academy Award-winning animated feature, the stage version includes all of the wonderful songs written by Alan Menken and the late Howard Ashman, along with new songs by Mr. Menken and Tim Rice. The original full Broadway production ran for over thirteen years and was nominated for nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

Beauty and the Beast JR. Auditionees,

Thank you to everyone who auditioned for Beauty and the Beast JR. over this past weekend. We are so proud of the hard work, courage, and determination you all showed us through your auditions, and we appreciate the work and time you put into your songs, dances, and callbacks. 

To those who were cast, congratulations! We can’t wait to start rehearsals with you. Your production fees are now active in your family account. Please pay these before the first rehearsal this Friday. More show and rehearsal info will be sent out this week, so keep an eye on your email.

Due to the large number of students who auditioned for Beauty and the Beast JR., we were not able to cast everyone who auditioned. If you do not see your name on the cast list and were not cast in the show, we will be emailing you with helpful audition feedback in the coming weeks, which we encourage you to apply toward future auditions. Please wait until after the new year to contact the artistic team with any audition-related questions so that we can focus on the front-end preparation needed to begin rehearsals.

As a reminder, rehearsals will be held at KingsWay Community Church. Here is this weekend’s rehearsal schedule:
  • Friday, 12/13, 5-9PM - TBD
  • Saturday 12/14, 9:30AM-4:30PM - ALL CAST
Our 1st Parent Meeting is this Friday, 12/13, from 7:30-9PM at KingsWay during rehearsal. At least one parent per family is required to attend this meeting. A detailed rehearsal schedule for the rest of rehearsals will be given out at this parent meeting.


Sincerely,

The Beauty and the Beast JR. Artistic Team
