8th September 2020 - Beauty and the Beast has now been postponed until 2021

We regret to confirm that our 2020 pantomime, Beauty and the Beast, has now been postponed until 2021. This difficult decision has been reached due to the impact of ongoing restrictions on indoor performances.

We are now in the process of contacting everyone who has booked tickets, and would like to ask for people’s patience and understanding as we manage this process with a reduced staff.

If you have purchased tickets for the show, please check your email inbox for further communications from us. Please note that box office phone lines remain closed while our staff continue to work remotely.

Belgrade Theatre Artistic Director Hamish Glen said:

“We’re obviously disappointed to have had to make this decision. Christmas is a special time at the Belgrade, and it’s always a pleasure to see families, friends and audiences of all ages coming together to share in the magic of panto.

“The good news is that we have already rescheduled Beauty and the Beast for 2021 and we’re incredibly grateful for the continued understanding, loyalty and support of our audiences, almost all of whom have been happy to transfer their bookings to next year’s dates. We look forward to welcoming you all back for a really exciting year in 2021, as we reunite to celebrate both the end of lockdown and Coventry’s year as City of Culture.”

The pantomime this year at The Belgrade Theatre in Coventry will be Beauty and the Beast.

This enchanting tale of heroic adventure, true love, messy mayhem and festive frivolity is destined to be the most beautiful and beastly yet!

Once upon a time in a land far away there was a handsome but selfish young prince. He fell foul of an evil sorceress and was doomed to spend the next 500 years hidden in his castle in the guise of a grotesque beast. Could anyone ever love such a beast and unlock the cruel spell?

Make-believe, music and lots of magic fun means a “beauty-full” Christmas treat for all the family!

Beauty and the Beast will run from Wednesday 25th November 2020 - Saturday 9th January 2021.
