A magical re-telling of the story of Beauty and the Beast, with music by Mick Sands drawn from traditional French folk melodies.
This edition contains the original version of the play, first performed at the Young Vic, London, in 1996. The play was substantially revised by Laurence Boswell in a version first performed by the Royal Shakespeare Company in 2003, which is available here.
Note for performers: the play can be performed with or without the music (the quoted performing rights fee is for the play without music). A digital version of the music score is available from Nick Hern Books for perusal and hire. Please enquire for more details, including fees for the score and the music rights.
Extra Content: Laurence Boswell talks about writing and staging Beauty and the Beast in an interview for StageTalk TV here.
