BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Disney’s Beauty and the Beast is the classic story of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped in a spell placed by an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed to his former self. But time is running out. If the Beast does not learn his lesson soon, he and his household will be doomed for all eternity. Twist was brought in by the original creative team of the award winning Broadway production to create some puppetry and effects for the National Tour. Their collaboration resulted in Twist designing and creating the gorgeous "Enchantress" as well as the dark "Wolves" in the forest.
