  • 1.  Beauty and the Beast changes?

    Hello!  I'm noticing that there are some changes to The Beauty and the Beast  that MTI is sending out these days. If you produced it this season what was your experience ?  Did it take longer than usual to have your application approved?

    We just did BATB in March to sold out audiences who raved about it.  I know a lot of people are complaining that several numbers are cut from the latest version but if you did not know the show well you would not really notice.  The best part of this version is it is under two hours.  We got approval from MTI in less than 48 hours.  It's expensive but you will hopefully make all of your money back.

    We also did BATB this year to sold-out crowds. We had a great experience but the music is hard for instrumentalists, not the vocals though. It didn't take long for approval at all.
