TheatreWorld invites you to "Be Our Guest" and check out our extensive Beauty and the Beast collection! Whether you choose a cartoon-like aesthetic or a more elegant take, we've got every scene covered! Say "bonjour" with BELLE'S TOWN SQUARE - B--and don't miss the clever nod to the show's Disney roots. For Belle's humble home, use OLD WORLD COTTAGE INTERIOR. GRAY FULL MOON is spooky choice for the treacherous woods that surround Beast's castle. For a distant, foreboding first look at the castle, add our BEAST'S CASTLE backdrop. Once inside, HAUNTED MANSION FOYER - B, complete with cobwebs, is the perfect choice to emphasize just how long the castle has been neglected. TheatreWorld has your big musical numbers covered, too! OLD WORLD TAVERN INTERIOR - B has all the rustic, manly details to support a rousing rendition of "Gaston". Turn to bright, colorful BE OUR GUEST CELEBRATION CURTAIN to create maximum spectacle while using minimal stage space for props and set pieces, leaving lots of room for choreography. Finally, for the iconic title number, there's no lovelier choice than our gilded GARDEN BALLROOM, as romantic as the scene itself. Whichever take on this "tale as old as time" you choose, your audiences are sure to fall in love with your scenic choices when you use TheatreWorld backdrops!
