Orange Beach Community Theatre will present Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast,” the Broadway musical Jan. 8-13, 2021 at the Orange Beach Event Center. Performances begin at 7 p.m. each night, except on Sunday, January 10th, which is a 2 p.m. matinee. Tickets are $15 each, general admission only. 

Step into the enchanted world of Broadway's modern classic, Disney's “Beauty and the Beast,” an international sensation that played a remarkable 13-year run on Broadway and has been produced in 37 countries worldwide. 

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 Broadway production ran for more than 13 years and was nominated for nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

The classic 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.

Doors open at 6:30 p.m. for the 7 p.m. performances, and at 1:30 p.m. for the 2 p.m. performance. Following social-distancing protocols, Event Center capacity will be below 20 percent for each performance. CDC guidelines will be observed.

Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" is presented through a special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI - www.mtishows.com.
