 Synopsis
Belle is a girl who is dissatisfied with life in a small provincial French town, constantly trying to fend off the misplaced "affections" of conceited Gaston. The Beast is a prince who was placed under a spell because he could not love. The one way he could break the spell was to learn to love another and earn her love in return before the last petal from his enchanted rose fell, which would bloom until his twenty-first birthday. But who could ever learn to love a beast? Ten years later, Maurice, an inventor from a nearby village, becomes lost in the woods and seeks shelter in the Beast's castle, the Beast imprisons him for trespassing. His daughter Belle, a bookworm who dreams of life outside her provincial village, finds him trapped in the castle and offers her place in his stead. The Beast accepts with a promise she'll remain in the castle forever. In the beginning Belle views him as nothing more than a monster, he views her as difficult and stubborn. But the two soon taste the bitter-sweetness of finding you can change and learning you were wrong. | Full rehearsal schedules are available to download from the 'Rehearsals' page

This site is dedicated to the past and future theatre productions of the Lennox Children's Cancer Fund. Since 2007, the Lennox has produced several well known musical hit shows at the 500 seater Queen's Theatre, in Hornchurch, Essex.
Although these show's have been described a 'worthy of the West End', they are all performed by an amatuer cast made up of volunteers from the local community. The dedicated production team also volunteer their time to ensure a quality performance every time and boy do they pull it off!
These shows are all in the name of charity and profits from ticket and programme sales go to The Lennox Children's Cancer Fund. To find out more about the Lennox and the work they do to make a positive difference to the lives of children suffering from cancer or leukaemia, visit the charity website at:
