Work:: Beauty and the Beast (S5906)

Production:: (T01572031039)
HCP marks its 40th anniversary with its first production for 15 years of this classic fairytale about a kindly monster - in reality a transformed handsome Prince - and his love for a beautiful young girl, more recently made popular through Disney’s animated film and stage musical. But David Swan’s imaginative script gives us a delicious new twist to this enchanting tale of fear and romance. Set in France, it plants us firmly in panto land with a magical Fairy, traditional Dame (Widow Bonbon and her Bonbon Kids - Sherbet Candy and Flossy), good and evil Princes and even two dim-witted traffic wardens, Nosey Parker and Kirby Crawler. Not forgetting Gigi, the pantomime horse. Will good triumph over evil? Will the Beast find true love? It’s the perfect recipe to showcase the award winning Charity Players much loved panto ingredients - fabulous costumes, sumptuous sets, great song and dance routines, plus the usual happy quota of knockabout humour and audience participation. Once again, panto at its finest and funniest! Oh, yes it is!
