A lovely, heartfelt production. A couple of weeks from being a regional theatre premiere, this production has been emulated and seen as rented elements across the country. Huge production including 28 wireless mics, 17 piece orchestra, fully reinforced, over 50 sound cues, beastly voice processing, and projections.
The townsfolk see The Beast in the sky above them. See the 2004 and 2005 Beast videos on the Early Projections page.
