It’s back! One of the most beloved stage shows based on an iconic Disney movie is coming back to Walton Arts Center in early February. And this week we’re giving away two tickets to see the opening night performance of Beauty and the Beast on stage at Walton Arts Center on Tuesday, February 3, 2026 at 7pm.
This show is so close to my heart because I took my daughter to see it when she was 3 or 4, worrying the whole time that she might not be able to sit still long enough to see it. But when the curtain went up, that little girl was mesmerized and didn’t move for two hours. Fast forward 15 years, now that same girl is a theatre major at University of Arkansas. We’ve already booked tickets to see this incredible show again to celebrate the beginning of her love for live theatre.
Here’s a video sneak peek at this stunning show:

Beauty and the Beast was the very first movie I saw in theaters as a 2nd grader with a friend. Such a sweet memory

Beauty & the Beast is one of my daughter’s favorite Disney movies. Would love to take her to see it on stage. There’s just something about seeing it on stage that makes it even better. One of my favorite scenes from the movie is when Belle recognizes Beast by his eyes when he is in human form. It’s such a beautiful moment!
Want to take my u of a daughter to this as I took my son many years ago and would love to have her see it too
One of our favorite inspiring moments is when Belle offers to take her sick father’s place as the Beast’s prisoner. She is one very brave girl who sets an exemplary example of sacrifice. My granddaughter Bella would LOVE to experience Belle and this most special play in person!
My granddaughter would love to go see this play!
I just love how sweet it is when Belle is willing to give up her freedom for her father’s.

All of Belle’s dresses!
My 81 yo mother has recently moved to NWA and I would love to win tickets to take her and my daughter to the show. What a special experience it would be.
I have to agree with other posters here. The fact that Belle is willing to take her father’s place is heartwarming.
I would love to win these so I can take my granddaughter! She loves Belle!
Of course the library. I think that’s the only answer

When belle and the beast are dancing
My toddler is absolutely obsessed with Beauty and the Beast right now. I know it would make her so happy to see her in person!
I think my granddaughter would enjoy this! I am not sure if I have “a” favorite scene. I love when Belle is singing and greeting the people as she goes along the street, the dishes dancing, the Beast and Belle dancing… so many sweet moments and great music!
Belle is my sister and four year old daughter’s favorite princess. Would love for her to experience Belle live.
I would love to see this performance! I’ve only seen the movie. I love any of the scenes that show Belle’s character. She’s a great example of a kind and giving person to us all.
Would love to take my daughter to this! My daughter loves the dishes scene where they are all singing.
