When Belle’s father Monsieur Croque is taken prisoner by a hideous beast, it’s up to our intrepid heroine to rescue him – with a little help from her friends! But could there be more to Beast than his fearsome appearance?

In the little French town of Grande Derrière, beautiful, book-loving Belle has got no interest in romance – especially not with her clueless upper-class suitors, Hooray Henri and Count Pierre de la Poshe. Fate has other plans, however, when she stumbles into the path of a cursed prince who has been doomed to live in the shape of a beast until he can learn that true beauty comes from within.

Will true love’s kiss break the curse before the last rose petal falls? Find out as this tale as old as time romps to its action-packed finale!

Archive material – an appeal from Harden Players

We are hoping to archive a history of Players’ performances from its long and distinguished past – partly in memory of Brian Foster, who was an active member for many years, but also as a way of celebrating the continuity and changes embodied in such a thriving community organisation. If you have any photographs, or old copies of programmes, posters, scripts or recordings (Betamax and VHS welcomed!), we would love to get them digitised. Please contact the Players on hardenplayers@hotmail.co.uk
