Beauty and the Beast

Beauty and the Beast at Richmond Theatre

Why see Beauty and the Beast?

A real beaut of a panto!

Be our guest! Dame Maureen Lipman is back in Richmond, stepping into the role of Mrs. Potty, alongside the hilarious Pete Firman as Silly Billy in this magical spin on Beauty and the Beast. Get ready for laughs, a little chaos, and a whole lot of heart as we follow Belle, the Beast and some very chatty household objects. This panto is set to be a beast of a show that'll have everyone grinning from ear to ear!

Longing for something more, Belle unexpectedly finds herself in a cursed castle, held captive by a fearsome Beast. But all is not as it seems. The castle is home to an array of magical characters, enchanted by a wicked spell. As Belle gets to know the Beast, she begins to wonder - can she look beyond his frightening exterior and fall in love before the final petal drops from the enchanted rose? Or will the Beast's stubbornness doom him to lose not just his world, but the girl who has started to melt his heart?

Review from a school

I was in charge of choosing and buying the Christmas treat for a primary school, ages 4-11 I couldn’t have found better, It was brilliant. Bright, funny and totally engaging for all ages including the adults. To watch the children’s faces was a picture. Thank you for a wonderful performance. A perfect panto and fabulous start for Christmas. ... Read more

Absolutely Outstanding

Xmas eve has been made perfect after going to the afternoon show. My congratulations to all the performers and everyone involved in making this a magical experience. This show has been the best so far as we go every year and it will continue. We loved it when things went wrong on stage making everyone laugh hysterically. What a great show and thank you ...
