Disney classic comes to life on stage

Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast” is coming to Haywood Community College at 7 p.m. on June 10, and 2:30 p.m. on June 11. MusicWorks! Studio of Performing Arts is producing the show under the direction of Lynne Wells-Meyer.

Adapted from the animated film by its original screenwriter, the heart-warming musical is the classic love story of Belle and the Beast, who is really a prince trapped in a spell. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved in return, the spell will be broken and he will be transformed back to his former self. However, time is running out, and if the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he will be doomed for all eternity. The show features original music from the movie, plus additional songs written especially for the stage.

Tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for children ages 3 to 17. 828.456.2283.
