County Library Hosts ‘Beauty and the Beast’ Presented by Hampstead Stage

COURT HOUSE — The Cape May County Library invites children ages 5-12 and their families to performances of “Beauty and the Beast” presented by The Hampstead Stage Company. This Summer Reading Club event will take place at all of our library branches throughout Aug.
Summer Reading Club Event! Beauty and the Beast is the French fairy tale of a selfless young woman, Beauty, who takes her father’s place as prisoner in a castle far away. Upon arrival, she meets the owner of the castle who appears to be a terrifying Beast. As time progresses, Beauty and the Beast begin to get to know not only each other, but also themselves. In this heartwarming, yet humorous tale, discover the power of being yourself and what it means to listen to your heart. While this program is best suited for kids ages 5-12 and their families, kids birth-12 years old are welcome.
