Birmingham Royal Ballet: Beauty and the Beast
Birmingham Royal Ballet visit with David Bintley’s gothic ballet.
A cruel Prince cursed to spend the rest of his life living in a fantastical castle with the animals he callously hunted, finds salvation in the heart of a beautiful girl.
Caught stealing a single rose, Belle’s desperate father exchanges his youngest daughter’s freedom for his own life. In his distant castle the Beast, stripped of his handsome features and his very humanity, must win her heart, or spend the rest of his life in bitter solitude…
is needed now More than ever
Witness transformations, wild waltzes, soaring birds and a relationship between Belle and the Beast that is at worst terrifying, but ultimately serene and beautiful.
May 1-4, 7.30pm plus Thur 2 & Sat 2.30pm, £13.90-£47.40. For more info, visit www.atgtickets.com/shows/birmingham-royal-ballet-beauty-and-the-beast/bristol-hippodrome
