Following up on our spectacular Sold-Out shows of "Grease",
this fall Roustabout's Apprentice program is singing & dancing its way through the gorgeous mega-hit,
"Beauty and the Beast".

There are many fantastic parts - male and female, lead and chorus - in this blockbuster show. This show has several demanding vocal parts, so please come prepared to show your singing range if you are interested in a lead role. Of course, we will again have terrific dance numbers and stunning costumes. The shows will run two weekends, Nov. 22-23 & Dec. 6-7, Saturday & Sunday, matinee & evening.
