I mean, let's be honest, regardless of what language, the "Belle! It's me!" The way it's voiced is honestly hilarious.

I love whenever a stage production includes the Enchantress. I saw one where every time a petal fell, it was actually her pulling it and at first, she was super into it and dancing, but as time went on, she got more reluctant to do it as she saw how close the Beast was to learning his lesson.

😲I find this is actually to actually be a really powerful decision. It makes the Enchantress a more human character. Even though I do not like everything from the 2017 live-action film, one of the decisions I like is how the Enchantress becomes a character of her own and her motives are more understandable as we see how she is mistreated by society for not fitting in and by the end of the movie she truly wants to help them. Her expression even is genuinely moved after Belle says "I love you". So it'd be really nice to see this stage production including her as a character you said.

I will never forget when the Beast started to transform in front of me when I met him. His paw was slightly off, showing the actor's arm a bit. I pointed it out and, while the Beast and Cast Members panicked at first, I just laughed it off and the Cast Members just said he was prematurely trying to change. The Beast asked to keep it a secret from Belle and I agreed. One of my favorite moments from going to Walt Disney World.

I was fortunate enough to very temporarily work in the Dutch musical version of Beauty and the Beast. What they did is they loosened the wig and removed almost all of Beast's make-up before his big fighting scene, which was done mostly in the dark in a sort of silhouette challenge. Also, his horns, nose, fangs, paws and feet were attached to his cape with strings before this scene. After dying, the actor was then lifted into the sky, where the cape was whisked away with magic in the dark, and in the dark his facial beastly features would follow. The actor who did it did describe the experience like: being waxed every night.

A bit of trivia from an ice skating nerd: The 1996 ice skating show starred famous Russian skaters Alexei Petrenko and Ekaterina Gordeeva. Even though he looks younger, he was 27 at the time and she was 25. Normally, she would have been skating with her husband and lifelong skating partner, Sergei Grinkov, but he had died suddenly of a heart attack while skating the year before. This show was Ekaterina's first skating show since his death.

You almost have to admire the raw chutzpah of thinking it was a good idea to start a musical adaptation of a movie nobody in the audience had ever seen, on the day said movie hit theaters, with about 75% of the runtime gone. And it worked? That's some confidence literally paying off right there.

As someone who has seen "Beauty and the Beast" on Broadway, the Beast's transformation in the end of the show is actually pretty good. The strange thing is that there is another actor who portrays the Young Prince in the beginning of the show. Of course during the transformation in the beginning of the show, they pretty much changed actors (the Young Prince actor to the actor portraying the Beast). And according to an interview with Terrence Mann, the actor who played the Beast is also the same actor who plays the Prince in the end.

And they should’ve upgraded the music , and started using the music from the 2017 live action remake of Beauty and the Beast,for the the stage show.

Here's an additional fun fact: for the 2017 live action remake they had originally shot a different transformation where the magic of the enchantress basically covered the injured Beast in rose petals and then the Prince emerged from those rose petals. It was all very dramatic. The Prince was shirtless during this scene so Dan Stevens, the actor who plays Beast, had worked out for months to look jacked during that scene. However, when test audiences saw it some of the parents/moms were concerned that the Prince looked too naked. So they reshot the scene to make it look more similar to the animated movie. It's a pity because while it might sound a bit weird, it could have been a very different, original version of the transformation. (Source: some interview with Dan Stevens that I saw online)

see I hear this argument all the time and I'm in my POR QUE NO LOS DOS camp. Beast and Prince both make my heart go flutter flutter.

FUN FACT: In the Broadway show, the Young Prince at the beginning is actually played by a member of the Ensemble. When the Enchantress throws the fireball and transforms the Prince into the Beast, there's a blackout. The Ensemble playing the "Young Prince" runs off and the main "Beast" takes over. Also, one of the show's original cast members the Late Merwin Foard actually wrote a special backstage song that the Ensemble would sing for fun while waiting in the wings dressed in their finale costumes. It's actually really funny. Basically it would go..... HIS LEFT ARM'S OUT HIS RIGHT ARM'S OUT HE THROWS THE BEAST MASK UPSTAGE AND THEN HE TURNS AROUND AND HE'S TURNING INTO JESUS, AND HE'S TURNING INTO JESUS, AND HE'S TURNING INTO JESUS, AND HE'S TURNING INTO JESUS, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Also if the transformation cherry picker is broken, the actor playing The Beast actually does a modern dance which was created by Terrence Mann. It has has happened several times on Broadway and in some of the international productions.

I truly appreciate all the videos in which Dan is just a big theatre nerd

Also I may be wrong on this, but I can assume that the Beast's "body double" is the same actor who played the Young Prince in the beginning of the Broadway show.

Backtracking a bit, we had a skrim on stage and had the intro story mimed out behind the narrator with lights and shadows....and then it came back for the finale and scenes were re-posed from the beginning/intro with flashes of light and in between the light flashes, our stage manger and director were helping our Beast rip off his wig and horns and wipe his face with makeup remover.....it was actually really clever. We also had the rise be an actual actress who danced across the stage and gah. It was actually really really well done for community theatre in a church gym....haha.

I loved when he said “Belle, it’s me!” XD

The beast transformation in the Tokio ride is amazing, but the prince is an anmatronic. Only the beast and the spinning of the beast is a peppers ghost effect. The prince is lowered and raised into the ground though a trapdoor

Here's a little videogame trivia for Beauty and the Beast fans: Many might know Robby Benson has provided the voice of The Beast in many Disney specials that feature the character, but if you were old enough to remember and you were a fan of point-and-click computer games, you might recognize Robby Benson's voice in the sixth installment of Sierra's King's Quest series, King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow as Prince Alexander, son of King Graham!

So for how I look like for the majority of the show I just had a beast horn mask (that you can find at party city) glued to my forehead cuz my bottom half my face has my actual mask (cuz you know covid) with a dramatic black eye make up, A dark messy wig and A pair of wolves gloves as my beast hands. So how we did it is after Belle did her 'no please don't leave me I love you' bit and crying on my chest when the music starts playing I slowly get up while the lights are going dark and while the lights are dark they start the fog machine while I take of my beast mask, wig, and gloves off while 2 people from the make up crew come on stage one to take off as much black eye make up as they can and the other to hold the light and to take my beast things after that they leave just enough time for me to get on my knees facing away from the audience and lights to go back on I slowly get up and do a dramatic spin facing the audience and we went on with the remaining of the show and that how we did the transformation.

I introduced my 11-year-old daughter to her, explaining that Laine was to be Belle for Halloween. Linda said, "Belle in her yellow dress?" And Laine, puzzled, looked at her and rather indignantly said, "No, ma'am! Belle with her basket of books!" 'Cause that' s how this family of nerds rolls. Linda was delighted, because I think that Belle is *her* Belle.

The Tokyo Ride magic is a little different than what you explained. The Human prince is actually on stage with Belle, he comes up through a trap door while the beast, the pepper ghost is just the cloaked beast form. If you catch a video of the effect when it doesn't work properly you can see the whole effect. Either way, it is a gorgeous piece of magic.

Disney enjoys chopping heads to their beloved characters. Once you see that the head fell down theirs no way to unsee it and stop laughing.

I know its not under the Disney franchise, but my favorite version of Beauty and The Beast ( and the Beast's transformation) is the French version of the movie. The story line is different, but is more based in reality, so some of the steaks are higher for Belle. Plus the Beast rendering is really good. A must watch in my opinion

Dan is the only man I think could play both beast and prince.

I was the Beast double in a community theater production about 10 years ago. In our production, the transformation at the beginning - Prince to Beast - was achieved by the Double, me, hiding in a specially built corner of the set, and emerging at a specific light and pyro cue, while the Prince actor disappeared in the same manner. I also fought Gaston up until the death scene and, thanks to how the set was built, was hooked to the fly rig over an obscured trap door, and then was hoisted and spun and “sold” the illusion. I was finally lowered through the same trap door while smoke and lights and perfect timing allowed the Prince to reveal himself. The audience bought it EVERY SINGLE TIME. I never went out for curtain calls or to meet the audience after, so we never gave the illusion away.

The transformation and description at 5:37 has me ROLLING!

I just wrote a whole post on Tumblr about this very subject. There's an interesting tug-of-war throughout the whole movie between "the Beast as a selfish brute who needs redemption" and "the Beast as a suffering outcast who needs acceptance," with Glen Keane apparently favoring the former interpretation while Howard Ashman understandably leaned toward the latter.

The Beauty and the Beast ride in Tokyo's transformation scene actually has the Prince animatronic on stage with Belle after the Beast pepper's ghost goes away ;) when the beast starts spinning, prince pops up through a trap door/ elevator in the floor, with his movement covered by the pepper's ghost illusion :)

That intro is so great. Thank you

That 2017 production looks amazing, the puppets and the beasts transformation is fab.

STROBES AND SPINS!! STROBES AND SPINS!!

My favorite is the On Ice Concert version SOLEY for Dan's reaction; who is this kid?! What is going on here?! I freakin lost it.

I still hope that someday the original version of the 2017 live action transformation scene can be shown in some form... allegedly the prince emerged, shirtless, from a bed of rose petals but that was too risqué for the midwestern moms who saw the test screenings...
