The musical ran on Broadway for 5,464 performances between 1994 and 2007, becoming Broadway's sixth-longest running production.

Adapted from the Oscar winning animated feature film, Disney's Beauty and the Beast is the story of Belle, a young woman in a provincial French town and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped in a spell by an evil enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved the curse will end and he will be transformed to his former self. But time is running out. If he does not learn his lesson soon, he and his entire household will be doomed for all eternity.
