Published: June 6, 2017, 3:22 p.m.

Get ready for loads of singing (you're welcome) and delight as we discuss the Disney classic Beauty and the Beast (1991) as well as two versions it's adapted from: Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve (1740) and Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont (1756)! We primarily discuss how the stories differ from the film (no personified clocks?! are you serious?!) before unearthing a treasure trove of positive opinions about the musical numbers as well as some questions like, when is "grey stuff" ever delicious? Stay tuned for the second half of our two part series releasing next week on the 2017 filmic version! Keep in touch @radaptations and radaptationspod@gmail.com.
