미녀와 야수는 알란 멘켄이 작곡, 하워드 애쉬먼과 팀 라이스가 작사, 린다 울버톤이 각본을 맡은 뮤지컬로, 동명의 1991년 디즈니 영화를 바탕으로 제작되었다. 이 뮤지컬은 브로드웨이에서 1994년부터 2007년까지 총 5,464회의 공연을 하였으며, 브로드웨이에서 6번째로 가장 오랫동안 공연을 한 작품이 되었다.[1] 처음으로 공연된 팔레스 극장과 브로드웨이 공연을 끝냈던 룬트 폰테인 극장에서는 가장 오랫동안 공연된 작품으로 기록되었다. 전세계에서 14억 달러 이상의 수익을 거두었고 13개 국가와 115개의 도시에서 공연되었으며, [2] 고등학교에서 제작하는 뮤지컬의 매우 인기있는 소재가 되기도 하였다.[3]

디즈니 씨어트리컬이 제작, 월트 디즈니 회사에서 재정을 지원하였으며, 영화가 제작된지 3년 후에 브로드웨이에서 처음으로 공연하였다.

배경 편집

이 뮤지컬에 대한 아이디어는 1992년 디즈니랜드와 1991년 영화 개봉과 함께 디즈니 할리우드 스튜디오 테마 파크에서 펼친 브로드웨이 형식의 25분 짜리 공연에서 발전한 것이다.

기즈니 극단과 전세계 디즈니 엔터테인먼트의 전 사장이었던 론 로건은 제프리 카젠버그에게 《미녀와 야수》를 브로드웨이 뮤지컬로 만들자고 제안하였다. 처음에는 의견이 대립하였으나 《뉴욕 타임즈》의 극예술 비평가 프랭크 리치가 기사를 통해 《미녀와 야수》를 브로드웨이 뮤지컬로 만든다면 토니 상을 수상할 것이라는 찬사를 보내면서 카젠버그도 뮤지컬 제작에 관심을 가지게 된다. 로건은 디즈니의 회장 마이클 아이스너과 접촉하여 자신의 생각을 전하고 프로젝트에 착수하였다.[4]

〈휴스턴 크로니클〉의 에버렛 에반스가 쓴 기사에서는 "According to an article in The Houston Chronicle, written by Everett Evans, "TUTS executive director Frank Young had been trying to get Disney interested in a stage version of Beauty about the same time Eisner and Katzenberg were mulling over [Frank] Rich's column. But Young couldn't seem to get in touch with the right person in the Disney empire. Nothing happened till the Disney execs started to pursue the project from their end.

When they asked George Ives, the head of Actors Equity on the West Coast, which Los Angeles theater would be the best venue for launching a new musical, Ives said the best theater for that purpose would be TUTS. Not long after that, Disney's Don Frantz and Bettina Buckley contacted Young, and the partnership was under way."[5]

Plot summary 편집

Act I

On a cold winter night, an old beggar woman comes upon a glorious castle belonging to a young prince. She asks the master of the castle to allow her to stay the night, away from the cold, and in return she would give him a single rose, but the prince was vain and uncaring and turned her away solely for her appearance. As he did this, she warned him not to be fooled by appearances, as true beauty lies within, only to be rejected again. Seeing his horrible heart for what it truly was, she transformed into a beautiful enchantress and turned the prince into a hideous Beast and his servants into different objects. She gave him the rose to use as an hour-glass. The one way he could break the spell was to learn to love another and earn her love in return by the time the last petal fell…

Years later, a beautiful young woman named Belle makes her way into town one morning in order to get a book from the local book keeper. On the way she expresses her wish to live in a world like her books, full of adventure, while the townspeople note her unparalleled beauty but find her love of books odd (“Belle”). Belle has also attracted the attentions of Gaston the local tavern owner and town hero, who admires her only for her beauty.

Belle, however, is not oblivious to her peers’ views of her. She voices her concerns about it to her father, Maurice, an eccentric inventor, assures his daughter that she is anything but strange and he will always love her (“No Matter What”). The two then put the finishing touches on his invention and Maurice heads off to an invention fair donning a scarf knitted for him by Belle (“No Matter What (Reprise)”).

In the woods, Maurice becomes lost when a pack of wolves attacks him; he finds his way to a mysterious castle on the edge of the Crossroads and enters. The servants (Lumière, a maître d' turned into a candelabra, Cogsworth, the head of household turned into a clock, and Mrs. Potts, the head of the kitchen turned into a tea pot) welcome him but the castle’s master, a horrid Beast, arrives and orders Maurice to be locked away for trespassing.

Back in town Gaston proposes to Belle, which she politely rejects (“Me”). Appalled by Gaston’s forwardness, Belle once again voices her need for a life outside this provincial one (“Belle (Reprise)”). Gaston’s sidekick, LeFou, returns from the woods in a familiar scarf. Belle realizes her father is in danger and heads into the woods to look for him. She ends up at the castle were she finds her father locked away in a dungeon. She makes a deal with the Beast, Maurice goes free but she remains in his stead. They agree and Maurice is sent back to town without being allowed to say goodbye. Belle is given a guest room and ordered by the Beast to join him for dinner. She mourns her situation (“Home”), but Mrs. Potts and Madame de la Grande Bouche, an operatic wardrobe, attempt to cheer her up (“Home (Reprise)”).

Back in town, Gaston sulks at his loss of a bride. The patrons attempt to cheer him up (“Gaston”), when Maurice rushes in claiming a Beast has Belle locked away, they laugh at him but Gaston formulates a plan (“Gaston (Reprise)”). Back at the castle, the Beast grows impatient as Belle has yet to join him for dinner. Cogsworth informs him she refuses to come, after a shouting match between Belle and the Beast (which ends in a victory for Belle) he tells her if she cannot eat with him then she will not eat at all. In his quarters, he sulks and notes his fate should the spell not break (“How Long Must This Go On?”). Eventually Belle does become hungry and ventures into the kitchen where the servants offer her dinner despite their master’s orders. They treat her to an amazing cabaret show (“Be Our Guest”).

After dinner, Belle gets a tour of the castle courtesy of Cogsworth and Lumiere, her curiosity leads her to enter the West Wing, a place the Beast told her was forbidden. Mesmerized by a mysterious rose floating in a bell jar, she reaches out to touch it but before she can, the Beast stops her and orders her to get out and rips her sleeve in the process. Appalled that he has touched her she flees the castle fearing for her life. Realizing his deadly mistake the Beast knows he will be a monster forever if he cannot learn to love her (“If I Can’t Love Her”).

Act 2

In the woods, Belle is attacked by wolves and is only rescued when the Beast comes to her aid, but he is injured during the fight and Belle helps him back to the castle instead of taking the chance to run home. She cleans his injuries and after a brief argument about whose fault this is, the Beast thanks her for her kindness and thus their friendship is born. Wanting to give her a thank-you gift, the Beast gives Belle his huge library, which excites her. She notes a change in the Beast’s personality as the servants note a change in Belle and the Beast’s relationship (“Something There”). They express their hope of being human once more (“Human Again”) while Belle asks the Beast to accompany her to dinner that night.

Back in the village, Gaston meets with the asylum owner Monsieur D’Arque. They plan to lock Maurice away to blackmail Belle into marrying Gaston (“Maison de Lunes”). In the castle, the Beast and Belle attend a lovely dinner and personal ball, where they dance together in the ballroom (“Beauty and the Beast”). After, the Beast (who plans to tell Belle he loves her) asks her if she is happy here, she responds positively but notes that she misses her father. He offers her his Magic Mirror to view him: he is sick and lost in the woods. The Beast allows Belle to leave in order to save him; she departs after a tearful goodbye (“If I Can’t Love Her (Reprise)”).

Belle finds her father and brings him back to their house in the village. After she is able to nurse him back to health she explains the transformation she seems to have gone through while with the Beast (“A Change in Me”). A mob arrives, led by Gaston to take Maurice to the asylum. Belle proves her father’s sanity by showing the townspeople the Beast is real using the Magic Mirror but doesn’t realize the error in her gesture. The townspeople immediately fear the Beast, Belle insists he’s gentle and kind, Gaston catches her tone and recognizes the Beast as his rival for Belle’s affections and organizes the mob to kill the Beast (“Mob Song”).

At the castle, the objects are able to keep the lynch mob at bay but Gaston breaks through and finds the Beast in his tower. He engages in a fight with him, mercilessly beating him and taunting him. The Beast has lost the will to live at Belle’s departure and Gaston moves in for the killing blow when Belle arrives, the Beast immediately turns on Gaston but spares his life. The Beast and Belle are reunited just as Gaston plunges his dagger into the Beast’s back but loses his footing and falls to his death.

On the balcony Belle assures the Beast he will live but they both know she is helpless to save him. She begs him not to leave her because she has found home in his company (“Home - Reprise”), but despite this, he dies; Belle sobs on his body and says she loves him just before the last petal falls. A transformation takes place and the Beast is alive and human once more. Though Belle does not recognize him at first, she looks into his eyes and sees the Beast within and they kiss. The two sing of how their lives have changed because of love and they dance once more as the company, now changed back to their human form, gathers in the ballroom (“Transformation/Finale").

The Original Broadway Cast Recording was released on April 26, 1994. The CD included Susan Egan as Belle, Terrence Mann as Beast, Burke Moses as Gaston, Gary Beach as Lumiere and Beth Fowler as Mrs Potts.

The song A Change in Me is not on the cast recording because the song was added to the shows when Toni Braxton joined the production in 1998 and has been kept in the production ever since. However, the song was performed on Disney's national touring jukebox musical, Disney's On the Record (2004). Susan Egan covered the song on her CD So Far

This second recording includes the song A Change in Me sung for the first time in Spanish.

Differences Between Play and Movie 편집

  • In the original movie, the servants of the castle were instantaneously changed into household objects. As this would prove quite difficult for costuming needs, the nature of the spell was changed. In the musical, the servants retain their human sizes and shapes as they slowly transform into objects; for example, Cogsworth grows two clock hands on his face as a mustache as the play progresses, and Mrs. Potts's cap becomes a lid. Reference is also made to other members of the castle staff who have permanently become the obejcts they were transformed into, such as a builder who has become a simple wall.
  • There are seven new songs (not including reprises).
  • The parts of Madame de la Grande Bouch and Babette were expanded.
  • Monsieur D'Arque's part was expanded.
  • The story of the spell was altered: instead of the deadline being the prince's twenty-first birthday, the deadline was an undisclosed number of years. This way, there was no set age for the prince.
  • The Beast was made to look more human.
  • Phillipe, Belle's horse, was completely cut out of the story.
  • The part of Chip was cut down slightly.
  • The part of the Three Silly Girls (Gaston's fangirls) was expanded.
  • The timeline is different. In the movie it seems Belle is with the Beast for weeks or even months, in the play she is with him for only days.
  • Gaston's wardrobe was expanded.
  • The story is altered from the movie where Belle and Maurice are trapped by the mob and are rescued by Chip, whereas in the play Belle and Maurice just leave to go warn the Beast.
  • In the platinum edition of the movie, during 'Human Again,' Belle reads Romeo & Juliet to the Beast. This is not known in the original. In the play, however, Belle reads King Arthur to the Beast during 'Human Again.'
