On Friday December 7th Stuart King and Lila Clements made a visit to All Saints Infant School, Ranton.
Stuart and Lila performed some of the classic songs featured in Beauty and the Beast and the children got their own instruments out and joined in!
Stuart commented: "I absolutely love doing trips like this. I know a classroom of kids dont want to stand and watch me sing a song- they want to join in, which is what panto is all about- the audience feeling like they are part of the show!"
There is less than a week until Beauty and The Beast, the rock 'n' roll panto opens. The first two performances are schools matinees, making today's trip even more appropriate.
Stuart added: "seeing every child grab an instrument, sing along and make a load of racket was great fun- even if the teachers had their fingers in their ears!"
The show fuses all the slapstick fun of a traditional pantomime with live rock' n' roll, with a cast of talented actor/musicians playing more than 20 classic hits live on stage including Hot Stuff, Let Me Entertain You, Sweet Child O' Mine and You Can't hurry Love.
As handsome Prince Promising is crowned the country's King, a party is in the air, but disaster strikes as he rejects an offer from the Wicked Witch. Casting a terrible curse she turns our handsome hero into a horrible Beast. To reverse his fate the Beast must win the heart of Beauty and take her hand in marriage. Meanwhile in a land not so far away Peacock Beauregard and his three daughters, Beauty, Vanity and Luxury, have lost their fortunes and have been forced to move in with Dame Bessie Bigbreaths on her farm.
To book your tickets to find out if the Beast can be tamed, the curse can be broken and if Peacock can decline the womanly charms of Dame Bigbreaths, simply call our friendly Box Office on 01785 254 653 or visit www.stafforgatehousetheatre.co.uk
