Freshers' Show 2024: Beauty and The Beast

Freshers' Show 2024 saw a cast of new Showstoppers take on and  'Beauty and the Beast'.

After her father is kidnapped, the intelligent young Belle sacrifices her freedom for her father, Maurice, becoming the prisoner of a terrifying Beast in his enchanted castle. The Beast, a cursed prince, must find true love before the petals of a magical rose fall to break the spell.

With guidance from the castle's servants, like Lumière and Mrs. Potts, Belle and the Beast slowly connect. Their budding romance is threatened by the villainous Gaston, who incites a mob to storm the castle. When Belle confesses her love just as the final petal drops, the Beast is transformed back into a prince, freeing the entire household.
