While our topic is ostensibly the first Disney Broadway musical (and, as of this release, 10th longest running show in Broadway history), Anna and Patrick spend most of this episode on being a young actor and how one gets started in this business at such a young age.   Topics include: Social Anxiety in theatre, Young Cossette, and is the Enchantress the real villain of this story?   Featured recordings: Beauty and the Beast - Original Broadway Cast Recording (1994) • Beauty and the Beast - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (1991)   Have you checked out our PATREON? You haven't? Then how are you going to listen to our patrons-only podcast The Original Cast at the Movies? January's episode features Beth Amman (Wicked) and Don Mike Mendoza (Hot Mikado ; Do I Hear a Waltz? 1965) talking about the Disney/Rodgers & Hammerstein TV event starring Whitney Houston and Brandy: Cinderella (1997).   Patreon • Twitter • Facebook • Email
