Laughternoon, starring Adam London (CLOSED)

"Beauty and the Beast" is playing at the Performing Arts Center at the Aladdin Hotel and Casino. This is the second touring company of the Broadway production. The musical, inspired by the Disney animated movie, is a delight for the entire family.

As the tours have continued, the scale of the production has grown a bit smaller. The bulk of the scenery is now presented on painted flats. The size of the cast seems a bit smaller, but the show itself is still grand.

In spite of some technical sound problems, the voices in the cast are excellent.

It is a good show, and one for the entire family...it’s Disney, of course it’s good.

This is a very brief review...but the show is only here for a short time.
