Cast & Crew Comments:
Who does your own personality and that of your characters compare?
Lucy: "Lumiere the Convivial Candlestick, is fun and friendly, and I am also fun and friendly, so I don't really have to change myself, I just need to be more like a candlestick!"
Isla S: "As 'Madame de le Grand Bouche' the Melodramatic Wardrobe, I've really enjoyed rehearsing and getting ready, as it has combined my three favourite subjects - Art, Music and Drama. It can be difficult at times because I have a duet and solo, but It's not too challenging - it's a lot of fun! I've got 14 lines, so it didn't take me too long to learn. It's going to be a great event and I can't wait to perform the show to our parents and school."

What are your roles and do you enjoy them?
Harry C: "I'm Gaston and I enjoy my role as I get to sing a lot - I love signing!"
Ned: "I'm Beast #1, and I'm the one who starts when the character is angry and depressing, but I'm not that in real life! I like being able to play someone different and being in someone else's skin.
