Beauty and the BeastThe Grand Anniversary Tour

A Tale as Old as Time...

"Beauty and the Beast", a tale as old as time, becomes an unforgettable experience for the whole family in Martin Doepke's celebrated musical version. The timeless story of the enchanted Beast and beautiful Belle, which has reminded generations of the power of true love for centuries, goes on a grand tour through Germany and Austria in spring 2025 in an overwhelming new staging to mark the 30th anniversary of this successful German musical. Breathtaking sets, magnificent costumes and sweeping melodies create a magical world full of romance, adventure and wonder. Let yourself be enchanted and witness a love that overcomes all boundaries!

A love that overcomes all boundaries...

Once upon a time there was a handsome prince, whose pretty face concealed an ugly soul… Chosen as heir to the throne, he must learn the true meaning of love and compassion. A fairy puts him to the ultimate test and transforms him into a hideous beast. A light is meant to remind him to open his heart to others - but with every flicker, the chance to reverse the curse fades… It seems hopeless, until brave Belle ventures from her quiet village into the enchanted castle to save her impoverished father. Only if she manages to develop true love for the prince despite his appearance can the curse be broken. Will she succeed in opening the Beast's closed heart and reversing the curse with the power of true love?

Many thanks to everyone involved!
