This is Disney's first North American touring production of the beloved musical in over 25 years, and it is a spectacular 30th Anniversary staging that reunites members of the original Tony Award-winning creative team. Composer Alan Menken, lyricist Tim Rice, and book writer Linda Woolverton have come together once more, with direction and choreography by Matt West, stunning new scenic design by Stanley A. Meyer, and the Oscar-winning costumes reimagined by original designer Ann Hould-Ward. With 40 performances across four weeks, this is a major event for San Francisco theatergoers.

Why the 30th Anniversary Beauty and the Beast Tour Is Special
Disney's Beauty and the Beast made Broadway history when it opened at the Palace Theatre in New York on April 18, 1994, becoming one of the first major animated-film-to-stage adaptations. It ran for 5,461 performances over 13 years, won a Tony Award for Best Costume Design, and launched multiple international productions that have been seen by over 35 million people worldwide. The show paved the way for an era of Disney theatrical productions including The Lion King, Aladdin, and Frozen. Now, more than three decades later, Disney has assembled a fresh touring production that honors the original while bringing new artistry and technology to the stage.
The 30th Anniversary production features spectacular new scenic design by Stanley A. Meyer that reimagines the enchanted castle and the village of Villeneuve with breathtaking detail. Ann Hould-Ward, who won the Tony Award for her original Broadway costume designs, has returned to create a dazzling new wardrobe that brings the enchanted household objects — Lumiere, Cogsworth, Mrs. Potts, and the rest — to vivid, theatrical life. Lighting designer Natasha Katz, another original team member, bathes the production in the warm golds and deep blues that define the show's visual palette. The result is a Beauty and the Beast that feels both lovingly familiar and thrillingly new.
At the heart of the show is the score by Alan Menken and the late Howard Ashman, with additional songs by Menken and Tim Rice. The film's original songs are all present, and the stage version adds several numbers that deepen the characters and expand the story. The score won the Academy Award for Best Original Score in 1992, and hearing it performed live by a full orchestra in a grand theater like the Orpheum is an experience that recordings simply cannot match.
The Orpheum Theatre is one of San Francisco's premier Broadway houses. Located in the Civic Center neighborhood at 1192 Market Street, the Orpheum seats approximately 2,200 and is known for its excellent acoustics and ornate interior. It has hosted some of the biggest touring Broadway productions in the Bay Area, including Hamilton, Wicked, and The Lion King. The theater is easily accessible via BART (Civic Center station) and Muni, and there are multiple parking garages within walking distance. For a show as visually spectacular as Beauty and the Beast, the Orpheum's wide stage and intimate sightlines make it an ideal venue.
The San Francisco engagement runs four weeks from July 14 through August 9, 2026, with 40 scheduled performances including evening shows and matinees. This is a limited run — once the production moves on to its next city, it will not return. Families, couples, and Disney fans of all ages have been eagerly anticipating this stop, and with the summer timing making it ideal for school-break outings and tourist visits, tickets are expected to move quickly.
