Star Tribune- Recommended
"...It is this quiet love story that so satisfyingly concludes the show, even though it was a raucous production number that got things started."

How Was The Show- Highly Recommended
"...Beauty and the Beast is a story not quite as old as time. Unlike most fairy tales we know when it was written, who wrote it, and why: in 1740, by Mlle Barbot de Villeneuve as an adult entertainment for French salon society. The story revolves around Belle, the daughter of the village odd-ball, who sacrifices herself to free her father, who has been captured by a Beast. The Beast is in fact a Prince cursed to live as an animal until he learns to love. If you don't already know the rest of this happily-ever-after tale you can probably guess most of it. Better yet, get thee to Chanhassen to see it unfold on stage."

Aisle Say Twin Cities- Highly Recommended
"...The quaint, intimate space at the Chanhassen Dinner Theatre can barely contain the dynamism of its latest production, Disney's Beauty and the Beast. For the first time in more than ten years, the beloved fairytale has returned to the charming west-suburban locale. The March 11th opener did not disappoint."
