Disney Cruise Line has announced that they are bringing a brand new musical production, “Beauty and the Beast”, to one of their cruise ships this fall.
“Beauty and the Beast” aboard the Disney Dream will bring the timeless fable to life like never before, featuring a style of theater that interlaces classic storytelling elements with cutting-edge technology, to create a unique, theatrical experience in the 1,340-seat Walt Disney Theatre. An innovative take on the story will transform renowned songs into spectacular, show-stopping numbers, and lavish costumes and puppetry will bring a fresh perspective to beloved characters.
“Beauty and the Beast” will debut during the Disney Dream voyage departing Nov. 6, 2017, joining an incredible lineup of Broadway-style stage productions aboard the ship, including “The Golden Mickeys” and “Disney’s Believe.”
Disney plans to give a behind-the-scenes look at the development of the show over the next few months. The cruise line is assembling an all star creative team to develop the new show that will be a live-action adaption of the animated classic.
