Beauty and the Beast is a musical with music by Alan Menken, lyrics by
Howard Ashman and Tim Rice, and book by Linda Woolverton. Adapted from
Walt Disney Pictures’ Academy Award-winning 1991 animated musical
film of the same name – which in turn had been based on the classic
French fairy tale by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont – Beauty and
the Beast tells the story of a cold-blooded prince who has been
magically transformed into an unsightly creature as punishment for his
selfish ways. To revert into his true human form, the Beast must first
learn to love a bright, beautiful young woman whom he has imprisoned
in his enchanted castle before it is too late.
