Beauty & The Beast

Written By: Mark Armstrong

Format: Pantomime
Genre: Comedy
Date: April 3 2015
Location: Epstein Theatre, Liverpool, England

It's the Easter season again, and for the second consecutive year, the Epstein Theatre decided to celebrate the occasion with a unique pantomime performance, this time of Beauty & The Beast. Featuring several notable names, as well as talented local performers, the show promised to deliver a good amount of entertainment and Easter cheer for spectators of all ages, and so it proved when I attended on Good Friday.

Beauty & The Beast essentially tells the story of how a young prince falls in love with a beautiful village girl, but problems arise when the prince is cast under an evil spell by a wicked enchantress, which changes his physical and facial features, turning him into a hideous-looking beast. In the meantime, another cocky young prince meets the girl and declares his love for her, but it becomes obvious that her true affections lie solely with the original man of her dreams. As such, she makes it her quest to rescue him from the enchantress' evil spell.
