{{Quotation| "Belle got more adventure, then even she, in her wildest imagination could have dreamt. For through a series of strange circumstances, she found herself held captive inside a dark and foreboding castle, inhabited by a very odd collection of cabinetries."}}

As the narrator talks, Lumière, Cogsworth, Mrs. Potts and Chip appear on stage. They then explain that they are inviting Belle (and the audience) to dinner. Lumière welcomes the guests as he announces that "the dining room proudly presents, your dinner". Dancing tableware then begin to sing "Be Our Guest", as Belle watches on in amazement. As the song ends, the scene shifts to the west wing of the castle, where the Beast growls and yells that Belle will only see him as a beast. Mrs. Potts, Lumière, Cogsworth and Chip hopefully explain however, that she might be the one who can break the spell. When Belle enters the room, the Beast yells that he told her never to enter the wing. After an argument, the others tell Beast to apologize, which he does. Belle and the Beast then start to sing "Something MoreThere" as they begin to fall in love.
After Something More There ends, the scene shifts to Gaston telling the villagers that they must kill the Beast or he (Beast) will kill them and their children. As the villagers and Gaston prepare for battle they sing "The Mob Song". Gaston and the villagers then reach the castle. As the mob attacks, Lumière, Cogsworth, Mrs. Potts, Chip and the Beast fight Gaston and the villagers. As Gaston taunts the Beast for loving Belle he stabs the Beast in the heart. As he is seemingly dying, Belle tells him that the whole thing is her fault, and that she loves him.
Although initially it seems as though the Beast is dead, Belle's love is enough to reverse the curse. The enchantress then appears back on stage, turning the Beast back into a young prince. The prince and Belle then dance together as Mrs. Potts sing's "Beauty and the Beast". After leaving the stage momentarily, the prince and Belle return in their royal clothes. As the song "Beauty and the Beast" ends, the two kiss, ending the show. After the show, all of the performers come out and take a bow, and a rose is given by Belle and the Prince to a lucky audience member.
