as this is my favourite movie, it is hard for shows/remakes to live up to the original. The show was good and I know they have to cut it down, but they cut out SOOO much! If you (for some insane reason) had never seen the movie, the story they do tell would be very confusing!
Pros:
time to sit!Cons:
cuts out a lot of the story and the acting is a bit over the top for some of the charactersReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 09/19/2023

Loved the dancers and Belle was amazing. I think Gaston was sick or not feeling well because he talked through most of his songs
Pros:
Dancers, Belle, fans on ceiling, you can bring snacks and drinks Sit in the row behind the tech team for great viewCons:

It jumps back and forth and all over the place. I wasn’t expecting half of it to be the original animation
Pros:
Great singersCons:

I really loved this. They did a great job of making this its own telling of the story with fun choreography and great acting. The only bit that seemed a bit rushed was the transition of Beauty and the Beast's relationship but only so much they can do in 25 minutes. If this had individual seats rather than benches I could watch this over and over.
Pros:
Well done stage show with its own take on telling the storyCons:
Bench seating that isn't very comfortableReviewed by Perkisizing Review Date: 02/11/2022

The perfect amount of charm and cringe. Also a great way to not only beat the heat, but Gaston is always the best in this show.
Pros:
Beat the heat, Gaston, CharmingCons:
Cringe, Lumiere is bigger than the BeastReviewed by JustinDoesDisney Review Date: 09/19/2021

I'm so glad it's back! I don't know if any other show in Walt Disney World screams "Disney" as much as Beauty and the Beast - Live on Stage does. The beloved music from this classic film and Broadway-type production/choreography performed by an extremely talented cast make this a must-do for me on every trip to the Studios!! Even though the theater is not air-conditioned, there are massive fans that generate a decent breeze for spectators.
Pros:
Immediately recognizable songs and scenes from the film performed by Broadway-caliber cast on a beautiful stage...need I say more?Cons:
Being 25 minutes long, it may be difficult for kids to sit through the entire show; the metal "bleacher" seats are not the most comfortable; theater is outside (covered but no A/C).Reviewed by HeartBreakKris Review Date: 06/28/2021

Fantastic show. The actors are truly Broadway caliber. Even though the show is often crowded I still feel it’s somehow underrated. More people should be taking time out of their day to be entertained by this extremely talented cast
Pros:
Great music, talented castCons:

Gorgeous show! It's the perfect length and the costumes, scenery and lighting are broadway level! I love this show and watch it every time I go to studios! There aren't really any bad seats either.
Pros:
High Production Quality, Shady seatsCons:
