BEAUTY AND THE BEAST OF ROCK 1st – 3rd February 2007
The Floral Pavilion Theatre, New Brighton

Beauty and the Beast of Rock

Another great successful pantomime and the last one for us in the old style Floral Pavilion Theatre. We are eagerly looking forward to the new style Floral and the re-opening!

For this performance we took the classic story of Beauty and the Beast and set it to modern day life incorporating rock music and changing the characters into rock legends such at Meatloaf, Ozzy Osbourne and Alice Cooper. They all meet at the "Queen Vic" and take part in an spectacular "air-guitar play-off".
