...Weekend for Disney's Beauty and the Beast, Jr., was a success! As of today (a welcome day-off), we have performed six times for audiences: three on Friday, two on Saturday, and one yesterday. The Gala was also this weekend, where a fun time was had by all. From what I hear, we met or nearly met our attendance goals, so thank you to all our fans who came to see us in the last few days.
As I said to one cast member backstage on Friday, which was our opening day, "It's so nice to get laughs at jokes we've known are funny for weeks."
The audiences, indeed, have been appreciative. During the transformation of the Beast into the Prince (spoiler alert!), those who purchased a glow-in-the-dark rose are encouraged to wave them in the air to heighten the magical mood. It's a rush to glance into the crowd and see all those waving little red roses. A true rush.
So what lies in store for the show? Well, we have a day off today, as I mentioned before. Tomorrow, we resume our morning performances for school audiences, though our next public show is not until Saturday, Oct. 24. We perform twice on our final day of Beauty and the Beast, a show we will definitely miss and remember for a long time.
