Drama Group’s Disney First

 

A local drama group will be bringing a first for Llanelli audiences by performing Disney’s Beauty and the Beast this week!

Llanelli Musical Players are only 1 in 5 amateur theatre groups being able to perform this show in the country and it is the first time Llanelli audiences will be able to see a full Disney show in their own theatre.

In case didn’t know, the story is based on the fairy tale La Belle et la Bête by Jeanne-Marie Le Prince de Beaumont.  It centers on a prince who is transformed into a Beast and a young woman named Belle whom he imprisons in his castle. To become a prince again, the Beast must love Belle and win her love in return.

Helen Jones one of the organisers said “We are already sold out for Saturday night and tickets for Thursday and Friday are going fast too at the moment!”

“Its a classic tale and all of us in the group including children and adults have worked extremely hard to put this show together. The set and costumes have been made just for us too.”

Disney’s Beauty and the Beast is in Theatre Elli on 2nd,  3rd & 4th December.  Tickets available from:

Theatre Elli Box Office, price £10, Tel: 0845 22635 10 or any member of The Llanelli Musical Players, £9, Tel: 01554 753616.
