‘Be Our Guest’ as the most enchanted musical of all time, Beauty and the Beast, comes to the Algonquin Theatre for the annual HfA/Rotary Spring Musical running from March 24-April 2, 2023.
Featuring over 50 local cast & crew members, this “tale as old as time” has thrilled more than 20 million people worldwide with show-stopping musical numbers, astonishing sets, and lavish costumes. Based on the Academy Award-winning animated feature, the stage version 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. A storybook theatrical experience your whole family will love!
Show Dates: March 24 – 26, 2023 and March 30 – April 1, 2023

After a serious health challenge confronted him, he began reflecting upon his teenage years during the 1960’s. It was from this that his creative effort began to formulate the concept of telling the story of Disc Jockeys, Radio and the wonderful music that constantly reminds him of that exciting part of his life.

Turning north, the long upstream journey under the setting sun follows the South Muskoka River to Baysville. During their final section, paddlers must find their way home under the cover of darkness, navigating mighty Lake of Bays to the finish line on Peninsula Lake. No outside assistance. No support teams. No re-supplies. No electronic navigation. Considered by some to be the toughest single day canoe race in the world, your X-PEDITION is waiting.
