Something in Disney World looks a bit different — did you notice?

Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom
No, we’re not talking about the meet-and-greets that are returning to the parks. We’re not referring to the festivals or events that have taken over the resort either. We’re talking about the Beauty and the Beast — Live on Stage Show! During our visit today, we noticed the show had some changes…but you’ll need a keen eye to spot them!
While in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, we watched the Beauty and the Beast — Live on Stage Show. And if the stage looks a bit fuller to you, it’s because it is! More dancers were added back to each scene, adding even more energy to the show.

Lots of Dancers!
It was nice seeing the stage full of performers — just like it looked before the parks closed in 2020.

A FULL Stage!
We also noticed a huge pop of color that was previously missing. That’s right, the pink dress is back!

Hello!
These changes, while small, made the show much brighter and more fun!

Welcome Back!
The dancers also touch and dance together in the final number of the show again. It’s been a WHILE since we’ve seen the show like this.
Back in April, we noticed that social distancing was decreasing as Belle and the Beast were able to touch hands during the show again.
