Ballet Theatre of Toledo’s Artistic Director and Choreographer Nigel Burgoine brings author Gabrielle-Suzanne de Villeneuve’s timeless classic story of “Beauty and the Beast” to life. This one-act ballet is set to an original score by Professor David Jex and accompanied by eight musicians. Belle, the heroine of the story, displays her love and dedication to her father by fulfilling his request for her to work for an aristocratic beast. As the ballet evolves, Belle realizes that despite the Beast’s appearance, he is a kind, loving individual. When Belle declares her love for him, the evil spell is broken, the Beast is transformed back to Prince Adam, and they marry and live happily ever after.
