Missoula Children’s Theatre presents BEAUTY LOU AND THE COUNTRY BEAST, an original country western adaptation of the classic fairy tale BEAUTY AND THE BEAST. Beauty Lou is the oldest daughter of the bronc-bustin’ balladeer, Buck. At the local county fair, young Beauty Lou is upset by the ungrateful behavior of a miner who has won the blue ribbon for his beautiful roses. She calls him a beast and wishes that he would look like one too. Years later, when in danger of losing the family farm, Buck meets the miner-turned-beast. Beauty Lou agrees to befriend the Beast to save her family. Beauty Lou and the Beast both learn to look beyond appearances and first impressions to see the beauty that dwells inside. The story, set in the American West, also features Beauty Lou’s six sisters, her Imaginary Friend, her dog Fleabite Clyde, farmhands Slim and Dusty, the neighborly Country Folk and the Barnyard Critters.
Campers are cast on Monday, and by Friday, they are performance-ready with costumes and sets! And when they're not rehearsing with Missoula Children's Theatre Directors, campers will take workshops as well as learn all about theatre and other avenues of the arts from WHBPAC's acclaimed Teaching Artists, enjoying pizza parties, ice cream socials and participating in the ever-popular, "Spirit Days!"
This camp culminates with a live performance on Friday at 7pm. Please note, Friday camp day times differ from the rest of the week and are from 1pm until the performance. More details will come the week prior to camp. Any questions, please contact Justin at 631-288-2350 ext 118.
