SHOW SYNOPSIS

Step into a tale as old as time this autumn as Beauty and the Beast comes to life on stage at the Epsom Playhouse. This beloved musical tells the story of Belle, a bright and courageous young woman who finds herself in an enchanted castle with a mysterious Beast, where she learns that true beauty lies within.

Featuring songs you know and love, including “Be Our Guest”, “Gaston” and the unforgettable title song, this production brings together dazzling costumes, stunning sets and a talented local cast to create a theatrical experience full of heart, humour and magic.

Based on the cherished animated film and adapted for the stage by Disney, Beauty and the Beast continues to captivate audiences with its timeless message of love, acceptance and transformation.
