The English version of Disney's 'Beauty and the Beast' musical will be performed at The Venetian Theatre from 19th June to 26th July 2015. Celebrating the 20th anniversary of Disney's stage spectacle by visiting Macau for the very first time as part of its forthcoming international tour, the production also visits Turkey, United Arab Emirates, Kazakhstan, the Philippines, Thailand, Singapore, and Indonesia.

The international tour brings the Broadway show's original creative team together to bring this much-loved classic to life on the stage. The musical is directed by Rob Roth and choreographed by Matt West, with Costume Design by Ann Hould-Ward (Tony Award winner for her work on Disney's 'Beauty and the Beast'), with Lighting Design by Natasha Katz, Scenic Design by Stanley A. Meyer, Sound Design by John Petrafesa Jnr. and Music Supervision by Michael Kosarin.

Based on the 1991 Academy-Award winning animated feature film, Disney's 'Beauty and the Beast' premiered on Broadway in 1994, for which it was nominated for nine prestigious Tony Awards and ran for 13 years, and still ranks as one of the longest-running, highest-grossing Broadway shows of all time.
