April 11, 1992 – The Beauty and the Beast Stage Show Begins in Disneyland’s Videopolis
“Tale as old as time…”
On April 11, 1992, the stage show version of the animated feature film Beauty and the Beast opened at Disneyland’s Videopolis area. It was similar to the stage version that premiered in Walt Disney World, but featured a different script, along with different sets and costumes. The show was highly popular, leading to the creation of the Broadway version of the animated film. The Disneyland version of the show closed on April 30, 1995. Although a new version of the stage show still runs in Walt Disney World, there have been no plans to open a version again in Disneyland.
