Description

From the frigid arctic north comes the story of the young woman who comes to appreciate a big, fierce man-beast and whose love tames his raging heart. French composer Andre Gretry's Beauty and the Beast (Zemire et Azor) is brought to the stage. The fairy tale myth is found around the world in diverse cultures as far as China and as close as Mexico. There is a Norse myth which tells the tale of a young woman who falls in love with a beastly polar bear. This variation of the Beauty and the Beast tale is the inspiration for TLO's fiercely imaginative new staging set in the mystic magical winter wonderland called the Arctic. Featuring magical costuming with puppetry, this fantastical, familiar, and fast-moving myth is a pleasure for children of all ages and is the perfect introduction to the world of opera. Reportedly having been a favorite of Mozart's, Beauty and the Beast features a clever score with a beautiful story of forgiveness, hope, and love. Sung in English with supertitles.
