Beuaty and the beast, MotherlodeWe’re so happy the ‘tale as old as time’ is returning to Walton Arts Center.

We know from the last performance (in 2010) that this live production of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast is AMAZING. And we have FOUR opening night tickets to give away so you can experience the romance and enchantment, too! An added bonus: Dinner at Hammontree’s Grilled Cheese!

This smash hit Broadway musical is based on the Academy Award-winning animated feature film. A classic musical love story, the show is filled with unforgettable characters, lavish sets and costumes, and dazzling production numbers including “Be Our Guest” and the beloved title song.

If you don’t know the backstory, the show is about a young woman named Belle and a “Beast”, who is actually a prince trapped in a spell put on him by an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the spell will end and he will be transformed to his former self. But time is running out, and if he doesn’t learn his lesson soon, he and his entire household will be doomed forever.

Here are the performance dates and times:

Friday, October 18 at 7 pm

Saturday, October 19 at 2 pm

Saturday, October 19 at 7:30 pm

Sunday, October 20 at 2 pm

  110. My favorite scene is when the Beast takes off Belle’s blindfold and she sees the library for the first time. That is exactly what I would look like if I was in a room with books from floor to ceiling!

  111. Tale as old as Time! We danced to it at our wedding because it’s my favorite 🙂

  114. I would love to take my family to see this! We saw it at Disney World and they loved it! my favorite part would be when Belle is singing in the village and Gaston is trying to “woo” her.

  115. I haven’t seen it in awhile, but my son loved it and I can’t wait for my daughter to see it!

  116. I love the beast transformation scene and the be our guest scene! The whole play is amazing!

  118. I love the opening number … “Belle”. My 3-year-old and I love this movie. We watch it A LOT!!

  121. LOVE the scene in the ballroom and the “Be Our Guest” scene. It really takes you into their world!

  122. Best scene is where Belle gives herself to the beast in exchange for her father. As a father I only hope I can create such a strong bond with my daughter!

  125. I don’t know if I can name just ONE! Although, I do love the transformation scene and the “Be our Guest” portion as well!

  127. i love the part where belle and beast dance in the library! such a great movie and teaches children that beauty is in the eye of the beholder

  129. The scene where the Beast show’s Belle the library. I also love to read.

  131. My favorite scene is Maurice’s workshop. Just seems like such a fun place… however my daughter LOVES “Be Our Guest”. Except she’s three and goes around singing “You’re the Best You’re the Best!” Warms my heart every single time!

  133. All-time favorite scene is when household items perform, “When We’re Human Again.” It’s only in the play, not the Disney movie (wish it was).

  134. Any scene with Chip is great, and of course any scene with a song. Best musical script!

  135. I love Gaston’s song at the pub. “I’m especially good at expectorating!”

  136. My favorite scene is when Belle takes her father’s place in the cell. She shows such love and compassion for her father that she is willing to give up her life, freedom, chance at love and seeing her father ever again to allow her father to be set free. It is the ultimate sacrifice to take in one’s place. I had never seen the movie until I watched it a year ago with my four year old daughter. She had seen it at daycare. But sharing that moment with my daughter, allowing her to see the emotion in my face as I watched it for the first time cemented my favorite scene in the movie. She sat in my lap and cried with me and told me, “Momma don’t cry, the beast really isn’t bad. You’ll love him just wait and see.”

  139. I would sincerely love to take my grand daughters to this show. It would be a wonderful gift for each of us.

  141. My favorite scene from the movie is when Belle takes the place of her father in the cell. She made the ultimate sacrifice of trading one’s life for another. She gave up her freedom, chance at love, the chance to ever see her father again or to live her life the way she wants too, all for her father. I had never seen the mother until about a year ago, which I watched with my 4 year old daughter. She had seen it at daycare. She sat in my lap as I cried over that scene and said, “Mom, its okay it gets better. The beast isn’t really mean.” It was a moment, scence and memory I will never forget.

  142. Be Our Guest is our favorite scene! Would be so thankful to win this special treat for my daughter!!

  143. Well, who doesn’t love the theme song “Beauty and the Beast!” And to see them dancing to it……………….. Enchanting………..

  145. I love music, so all the music scenes are great but my favorite is “Be our guest”!

  146. The part where Belle’s dad was working on his invention in the basement and she asked if people thought she was strange. He replied, looking very strangely, with “Where’d you get an idea like that?!”

  147. I love Chip so any scene with him is a favorite. I do love the opening song where Belle is walking through her village.

    Well, there’s the usual things: flowers… chocolates… promises you don’t intend to keep…

  149. My favorite scene is the one where Belle refuses to eat, even though the Beast roars out for her to stay in the room and starve. I think it shows girls they should stand up for themselves. 🙂

  176. My favorite scene of Beauty and the Beast is Something There that wasn’t There Before.

  180. I absolutely love “Be Our Guest” and sing that song for days after hearing it and watching it! And I would have to say that is my favorite song, but as to my favorite part, I LOVE the love story and so when Belle chooses “the Beast” and is in love with him as he is, makes my heart swoon! Love this story and the songs!!!

  181. I love the end when all the characters are turned into humans. I think it is cool to put a face with a voice. And little Chip is the best!!

  189. The snowball fight scene is the best. (“There’s something there that wasn’t there before..”)

  190. The be our guest scene is my favorite. Would love to share this experience with my children.
