Alpha's Beauty and the Beast combines all that is loved about any version of the classic fairytale you could imagine. Alpha's version is grounded in love through letting go of old beliefs, old rules and all that prevents us from loving others fully without fear.

It's also incredibly funny and silly, as well as very touching and dramatic. This is the perfect selection for your first Alpha show, as it fully prepares an audience for our other shows through the same process of letting go and feeling love and fun easily and without restriction.


Beauty and the Beast is a well known, very popular fairytale with a story still relevant today. Alpha's musical rock concert of Beauty and the Beast captures the magic of what every child expects from this classic, as well as going beyond expectations by engaging the audience as part of the story.

Through this involvement, the audience is not simply just a spectator but becomes part of the decision making processes and aware of the moral and ethical dilemmas of the characters. Mesmerising and guaranteed to capture the imagination and attention of every child and grown up in the audience, so be sure to reserve your place today so you don't miss out!

Of course, Beauty and the Beast is a well known classic. It's now an Alpha classic and a favourite for everyone who sees it. Incorporating everything children expect, we also entertain adults and create a lot of yell-out fun and passion for theatre! Usually the first show a school brings in from Alpha, this will inspire your students and leave excitement and enthusiasm that will last for a long time. It also puts children in the perfect state for learning, as do all of our shows, which means a great place to discuss the themes and prompt some great creativity. Self-image is important for children and the Beast provides a great role model of 'what happens' when you act in positive and loving ways.
