auditions will be video recorded by the production team, for internal use only. No videos will be
published.

Best regards,

Mrs. Luciana Maia


Artistic Director
Audition Material Pack
FEMALE
MRS. POTTS

Character Breakdown: Mrs. Potts is the castle’s endearing British cook who has become a teapot.
You need to be strong but sweet, and should be able to convey comforting, maternal qualities
amidst the chaos that is breaking out in the castle, acting as a loving mother-figure to all other
characters.

Monologue: “Well, what would you have us do? Give up? I like this girl. I like her spunk. I think that
may be the first time I’ve ever heard him use that word. (BELLE pokes her head out of her room)
Hello, dearie. I hope the Master didn’t frighten you too much. He can be a little... temperamental. If
there is anything we can do to make your stay more comfortable, let me know! Cogsworth, the lady
needs some nourishment!... Oh, pish posh! I’m not about to let the poor child go hungry!”

Song Cut: Be Our Guest, Measures 81-118 of the sheet music (pages 62-64 of the script:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xIDOY0-_soEWtsxzq_-iNbRhYR4axe16/view?usp=sharing )

“It's a guest, it's a guest


Sakes alive, well, I'll be blessed
Wine's been poured and thank the Lord
I've had the napkins freshly pressed

With dessert she'll want tea


And my dear, that's fine with me
While the cups do their soft shoeing
I'll be bubbling, I'll be brewing

I'll get warm piping hot


Heaven's sakes! Is that a spot?
Clean it up! We want the company impressed

We've got a lot to do


Is it one lump or two
For you, our guest?
(She's our guest), she's our guest, (she's our guest),
Be our guest, be our guest, be our guest!”

MALE
GASTON

Character Breakdown: Gaston is pompous and dim-witted and will do whatever it takes to win
Belle’s hand. Gaston has all the confidence in the world but lacks the humility to balance it. You need
to be able to sell your big eponymous number with gusto and arrogance as well as lead the Villagers.
Biceps can be added to the costume, but the attitude needs to come from within!

Monologue: “Hellooo… Belle! How can you read that? There’s no pictures! (beat) Belle, it’s about
time you got your head out of these books and paid attention to more important things. (strikes a
pose) Belle, this is the day your dreams come true! Oh yeah, I know all about them. Picture this. A
rustic hunting lodge. You, my little wife, massaging my feet while the strapping boys play on the floor
with the dogs. We’ll have six or seven. Boys, not dogs. So Belle, what’ll it be? (BELLE leaves) That
Belle, always playing hard to get. She turned me down for now, but I’ll have Belle for my wife. Make
no mistake about that!”

Song Cut: Mob Song, Measures 25-48 of the sheet music (pages 102-104 of the script:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xIDOY0-_soEWtsxzq_-iNbRhYR4axe16/view?usp=sharing )

“So it's time to take some action, boys


It's time to follow me

Through the mist, through the woods


Through the darkness and the shadows
It's a nightmare but it's one exciting ride

Say a prayer, then we're there


At the drawbridge of a castle
And there's something truly terrible inside

It's a beast! He's got fangs


Razor sharp ones
Massive paws, killer claws for the feast!

Hear him roar! See him foam!


But we're not coming home 'til he's dead!
Good and dead!
Kill the Beast!”
