Our Beast

Eli finished up his second semester at Young Actors Theater. His class worked hard to prepare for their scene in the showcase. We finally got to see all of his hard work pay off. The class studied the works of Alan Menken and performed a scene, song, and dance from Beauty and the Beast.

Eli auditioned for a few roles, but was really hoping to get the part of the Beast, and he got it. We had horrible seats, so the photo quality is poor, but Eli's performance was just the opposite. It was wonderful! I was incredibly impressed with our little actor. He growled, he prowled, and he projected well.

He was a star in our book! Way to go, Eli....or should I call you, Beast?
