Message from the Director
This show...quite literally...is a BEAST!! I am so incredibly proud of this cast and crew, tackling one of the largest productions I have ever come across. Not only have they maneuvered the intricacies of numerous props, costume changes (SO many), set pieces, lines and lyrics, choreography and scenic projections, but they've delved into character exploration like I never would have expected. Disney's Beauty & the Beast goes much "deeper" than I knew. We ALL learned together what it means to look at several sides of ourselves, and be able to play them in under two hours! This show pushes the entire ensemble to dig deep; Are you afraid? Are you angry? Are you hopeful for a brighter future? Are you making the best of what you've got? Are you allowing yourself to change? And the big one....Are you able to love, anyway? I must admit, this story pulled at my heartstrings on more than one occasion, and I can only hope that it does the same for YOU! Thank you to everyone who made this "beast" happen, and thank you, audience member, for BEING OUR GUEST!
-Cheers & Applause, Aly Cross (This one is for my Mommy...who knows, better than anyone, how to "love, anyway".)
