I loved the concept of celebrating the original with something entirely new. The intermingling of live performances, dance, digital media, animation, and a dash of Disney history gave the audience and viewers a new way to experience the story. I absolutely LOVED it. This format was perfect for showcasing and celebrating the talents of an impressive, diverse cast. Including legends of stage, film, and music, and new-school name makers was genius! There was truly something for everyone. Casting H. E. R. As Belle was an inspired choice-the singing, the acting, the GUITAR SOLO!!! Beautifully done! Wow!
