Beauty and the Beast at The Courtyard this Christmas

After Beauty finds herself imprisoned by a mysterious beast in an enchanted castle, there is little hope that our heroine will ever be reunited with her devoted father.

But unbeknown to her, the beast is secretly a handsome prince under an evil curse. Only by changing his selfish ways and finding true love can he ever hope to break the spell.

Will the Beast learn his lesson before the last rose petal falls? Will Beauty ever get back home? There’s only one way to find out.

Join The Courtyard on this magical journey filled with colourful characters, glittering costumes, magnificent musical numbers, and plenty of panto humour. Featuring several Courtyard favourites, including Madeline McMahon, Richard Curnow and Alfie French and welcoming back the creative dream team Estelle van Warmelo and Lyndsay Maples as director and writer.

As part of The Courtyard’s commitment to accessibility and inclusivity there will be a Relaxed Performance, suitable for individuals with autism spectrum conditions, learning difficulties or sensory and communication difficulties, on Monday 2 January at 10.30am. There will also be a
Dementia Friendly performance on Tuesday 3 January at 1pm (doors will open from 12pm).

The Courtyard Audio Description Association (CADA) will be audio describing a performance on
Saturday 10 December at 2pm and a British Sign Language signed performance will take place
on Sunday 11 December at 6.30pm.

Audiences can expect plenty of familiar references and Herefordshire based jokes in The Courtyard’s pantomime, Beauty and the Beast.
