AUDIENCES are invited to enjoy Beauty and the Beast this Easter as the laugh out loud comedic show comes to St Helens Theatre Royal.

The fairytale production from Regal Entertainments will tell the story of Belle who falls in love with the most unexpected of princes, who has been cursed to live as a hideous beast. Will the Beast learn how to love and be loved in return – and will the spell be broken in time for a happily ever after?

The show will run from Wednesday April 5 to Sunday, April 16 with tickets on sale now starting from £16.

St Helens Star:

The cast includes Lauren McCrory as Belle, Benjamin Keith as the Beast, Auguste Voulton as Gaston, Lewis Devine as French Frank, Abigail Middleton as Madam Botox, Marie Lovelady as Fairy Rose and Richard Aucott as Potty Polly.

The show is written by Liam Mellor and directed by Chantelle Nolan.

Nazene Langfield is choreographer and Callum Clarke is music supervisor.

Theatre Manager and the show’s director Chantelle Nolan says: “An intelligent and beautiful heroine, a flawed hero, and an arrogant suitor, all wrapped up in a tale that values the power of love and kindness – who could ask for more this Easter?
