Product Information

Magic Kingdom, Chip's likeness can be seen on the sign of Mrs. Potts' Cupboard Ice Cream. Also in the Magic Kingdom, Chip appears in Once Upon a Time, where Mrs. Potts tells him bedtime stories of classic Disney tales. Make-up and Wigs– Make-up had been well applied and the various characters had been well brought out and all looked authentic under the stage lights. Wigs also looked good they appeared to have been dressed correctly and were of a good fit. Lesley Vought–(SILLY GIRL 3) – These three portrayed their ‘Silly Girl’ characters spot-on and maintained them throughout the performance. They flitted about the stage area as if joined together.Here we had good diction and projection so that every word could be heard. Not easy characters to present and sustain I would imagine – So well done to all three of you

The opening of the story was much welcomed. Similarly to the Disney animation the story began with the brief narration of how and why the Beast earned his monstrous appearance. This was beautifully illustrated with still images viewed behind a transparent curtain. A curtain, that in fact, was a clever means of subtly dividing this artistic introduction from the story plot.

Her initial abhorrence towards the ‘Beast’ to her eventual love for him was all beautifully portrayed. This young lady has enormous talent, not only in her acting ability but in her vocal quality, Abi presented a singing voice of exceptional clarity together with control and power. Her singing in her various numbers was a joy to listen too and in particular her number with her father ‘No Matter What’– Congratulations on a terrific presentation.

Front of House–Sainsbury Singers still retain the high standard one has come to expect from the Front of House staff – keep up the good work.I was impressed by the director’s choice of a still montage during the town scene early on. It effectively portrayed a busy environment yet, toned down with silence, it did not prove distracting to the audience, who were focused on Belle. As a whole, it created a beautiful vision that magnetised our attention to the stage. Emma Reeves–(Mrs POTTS) – To move around the stage dressed as a teapot with one arm permanently extended as a teapot spout and at the same time wheel a trolley with one hand must have been difficult in the extreme but you made it look easy. This was a lovely characterisation, dispensing tea to all and sundry. A wellsung ‘Beauty and the Beast’– Well-done. Chip reappears in the film series' final installment but plays a small role in contrast to his first two appearances.
