14 roles
Maurice is an aging and eccentric inventor, but more importantly, the adoring and protective father of Belle.
The Beast is a young prince who was hideously transformed by the Enchantress’s spell.
Gaston is pompous and dim-witted and will do whatever it takes to win Belle s hand. Gaston has all the confidence in the world but lacks the humility to balance it.
Lefou is Gaston’s equally dim-witted lackey.
The Silly Girls are in love with Gaston and will do almost anything just to be near him.
Lumiere is a confident, charming French mâitre d who (under the enchantress’s spell) is becoming a candelabra. He is self-confident and charming, and has an incessant bickering rapport with Cogsworth.
Cogsworth is the British major-domo of the castle who is becoming a clock. Like all of the castle’s Servants, he shows a fatherly compassion for Belle yet is perfectly submissive to the master, the Beast. Cogsworth enjoys feeling like the boss and has no problem getting into it with Lumiere.
Mrs. Potts is the castle’s endearing cook who is becoming a teapot.
Babette is the maid of the castle who is turning into a feather duster. She misses the finer things in life. Babette is happy to be at Belle s service at a moment’s notice, but her true heart comes through in Human Again.
Madame De La Grande Bouche is an opera singer who is becoming a wardrobe. Madame is larger-than-life in everything she does, including her singing and dancing.
Chip is Mrs. Potts’s son who is becoming a teacup. Chip has a wonderful naïveté that endears him to all of the Servants.
