“Disney’s Beauty and the Beast” is the story of Belle (Brooke Quintana), a beautiful young woman, and the Beast (Sam Hartley), a young prince who has been cursed by an enchantress and transformed into a monster. The Beast must learn to love and be loved in order to break the curse and become his former self again. But time is running out, and if the Beast doesn’t learn his lesson, he will be doomed to eternal loneliness.
