A Wrexham theatre is set to launch a production of Beauty and the Beast in pantomime this December.

Stiwt Theatre, based in Wrexham will welcome the famous fairytale from December 9 until December 31.

The LHK production follows the famous love story of a selfish, vain and handsome Prince that is tested by an Enchantress who is seeking shelter. 

Disguised as an old woman, the Enchantress begs for help only to be turned away by the selfish Royal.

Seeing that the Prince is rotten to the core, with no love in his heart, the Enchantress curses him and the entire contents of his castle, transforming the Prince into a fearsome Beast.

The only way to break the spell is for him to learn to love another and earn love in return before the last petal from the magical rose falls. But who could ever learn to love such a fearsome Beast?

Tickets are priced at £16.50 for adults and £14.50 for children here. 

LHK productions is a renowned theatre production company that produces pantos across the UK. 

The show will feature panto favourites Holly Bills as Belle, Laura Coard as the countess, Andrew Heath as Dame Dolly Doughnut, Richard Young as Gaston plus a full supporting cast as they take you on a magical journey to a far-off land where we learn that true beauty comes from within!

Lee Kelly, production manager, said: "We are very excited to be back at the Stwit Theatre this year, the feedback from last year's panto was fabulous and we know everyone will absolutely love Beauty and the Beast too".
