Dos Pueblos Theatre Company will present BEAUTY AND THE BEAST Apr. 22, 23, 30, May 6 & 7 at 7pm and Apr. 23, 30 and May 7 at 2pm in the Elings Performing Arts Center. Tickets are $10 for students and seniors and $14 general admission. They may be purchased online at www.dptheatrecompany.org or at the door. Current COVID precautions require audience members to wear masks. Children under three are not allowed.

Although this 2022 production of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST is not a national pilot production, it will feature the same creative new components that earned DP its reputation for innovative staging and design. The choreography and staging has been reconceived by Gioia Marchese, Tammy Norton and Clark Sayre. Sayre notes, “We’ve purposefully stayed away from the professional and high school choreography and staging we’ve seen on Youtube. We want to give audiences a fresh perspective, but one that is still grounded in the text.”
