EVERYONE loves a fairytale and pupils at Mountbatten School certainly staged a brilliant production of Beauty and the Beast.
Last week’s show told the story of Belle – an independent girl who was dissatisfied with life in a small provincial French town and the unwanted attentions of oafish Gaston. Fleeing from home she winds up in the Beast’s enchanted castle where the furniture and crockery come to life.
Head of drama Faye Gould said students had been working tirelessly on the production since last September. Around 90 were involved in the show either as cast members or as technical crew.
Miss Gould said: “The students worked tirelessly to bring the show together with stunning effect. The show featured toe-tapping musical numbers against a magnificent set, topped off with dazzling costumes. It was a spectacle is not to be missed!”
