Piedmont Unified School District: Piedmont/Millennium High Schools Present ‘Beauty And The Beast'

Press release from the Piedmont Unified School District:

January 24, 2022

The Piedmont/Millennium High School production of Disney’s ‘Beauty and the Beast’ will be presented February 4-6, at Holy Names High School, 4660 Harbord Dr., in Oakland.

Directed and choreographed by Amy Moorhead, with vocal direction by Amy Belles, the stage musical is based on the Academy Award-winning animated film, and includes all of the wonderful songs written by Alan Menken and the late Howard Ashman, along with new songs by Mr. Menken and Tim Rice. The original Broadway production ran for over thirteen years and was nominated for nine Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

The classic story tells of Belle, a young woman in a provincial town, and the Beast, who is really a young prince trapped under the spell of an enchantress. If the Beast can learn to love and be loved, the curse will end and he will be transformed into 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. This “tale as old as time” is filled with spectacular costumes, beautiful singing and dancing, and is a great opportunity to bring your entire family (masked) to the theater.

Performances are scheduled for:

• Friday, February 4th, 7:30pm
• Saturday, February 5th, 7:30pm
• Sunday, February 6th, 1:00pm & 6:00pm
