More Beauty and the Beast

 I am still singing songs from the show last night, though I have transposed them to English in my mind.  We are both still commenting on how much we enjoyed the show.
  Ann-Marie, Thomas wife, and their son Connor had come to see the show with some friends from the states.  It is only the second time Ann-Marie has seen it.  She has to pay full price every time she comes.  There are no price breaks for anyone.  No last minute deals, etc.
   Here is the playlist for the night.  Chip was played by Thomas and Ann-Marie's 8 year old daughter.  She did a great job and actually has quite a few lines.  Check out her multiple names.  This is quite common in Denmark
 We met Thomas and Laura right after and he had permission to take us up on the stage.  It was an amazing small stage for such a grand production.  All of the scenery is pulled up above the stage and stored.
 
This is the rotating  "home" of the beast on stage.
 The rose and petals are radio controlled to fall as needed.  They are each hooked to fish line.

Thomas is so gracious and really kind.  You could actually feel it in the play.
The costumes were fabulous and just keep coming.  They had a whole new set for the final scene and so elegant.  The jewels on this outfit were all hand sewn or glued on.  Thomas took us to the "green" room where many of the other costumes were stored.

 Silverware head pieces plus Conner, Ann-Marie and friend. Thomas met them when he was an exchange student at Bingham High School in Salt Lake as a teenager.
Look at the elegance: lace, ruffles,hoops, feathers and bling.  So fun!
