Mark your diaries today for this Spring 2026 spectacular.

We’ve been lucky enough to gain the rights to perform another debut show for Abingdon in April 2026.  You’ll want to be sure to get your tickets the moment they go on sale.

Adapted from the Disney animated movie, Beauty and the Beast tells the story of an unkind prince who has been magically transformed into an unsightly creature as punishment for his selfish ways. To revert into his true human form, the Beast must learn to love a bright, beautiful young lady who he has imprisoned in his enchanted castle and earn her love in return before it is too late.

The show made its live-action debut in New York in 1994, and then ran on Broadway for 5,461 performances for thirteen years (1994–2007), becoming Broadway’s sixth longest-running production in history at the time of closure. To date, it is still the tenth longest running show.

If you have children, you’ll want to share the magic of this live musical with them, and if you don’t have children, don’t worry, grown-ups will love this enchanting show too.
