Moscow hunts the Beast

Published 28 May, 2008, 16:01

Hot on the tail of the hugely successful Mamma Mia musical, preparations are under way for Beauty and the Beast to be performed in Moscow.

The musical adaptation of the classic fairytale was performed for more than 10 years on Broadway.

Now it’s Russia’s turn to stage the story, and the casting crew have begun their search for a beautiful princess.

Russian television audiences will get to choose the not-so-handsome prince. A nationwide TV show is being launched to discover a lucky Beast to play the role.
