Beauty and The Beast

Following Victorian State Ballet’s sell-out seasons since its Australian Premier in 2018, we are proud to present this spectacular original ballet, to audiences in 2025.

Featuring internationally recognised Principal Artists, Elise Jacques as Belle and Cieren Edinger as Gaston, Tristan Gross as the Prince/Beast and Alexia Simpson as the Rose.

Our production is based on both the original tale by French novelist Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve, and the screenplay for Disney by Linda Woolverton, bringing to life a captivating display of the beloved characters that we all know and love from other films and musicals.

Within spectacular classical ballet choreographies, our version seeks to retell this magical story and to draw the audience right inside the spellbinding moments, transporting through to the very moving transformation, grand waltz and happily-ever-after final scenes.

Victoria State Ballet’s unique ballet version creates a fresh touch while maintaining true to the essence of the original storyline. Highlighting the characters in the story through beautiful classical ballet is a compelling feature of this production suitable to all ages.

We are delighted to bring Beauty and the Beast to the stage, featuring the stunning artists of the Victorian State Ballet, and magical original choreography of Michelle Cassar De Sierra.
