"The show’s got a great cast of TV stars, a host of brilliant songs and some truly amazing dancers.

"We know how popular the Christmas pantomimes are in Dunfermline and we’re going to give audiences another quality family event this Easter, with the magical story of Beauty and the Beast."

The popular panto tells the story of Belle, who longs for romance and adventure, a bad-mannered Prince who is transformed into a Beast to teach him a lesson and a good Fairy who makes both their dreams come true.
