Ballet to Broadway: an Interview with Leigh Ann Esty - a Swing and Understudy for 'Disney's Beauty and the Beast'

onstagepittsburgh.com: The Benedum Center has invited Disney’s Beauty and the Beast to ‘be their guest’ from Tuesday, February 24th, through March 1st. The production marks the 30th anniversary of Disney’s groundbreaking musical that brings the beloved 1991 film to life. The new production hails from the same producers of Disney’s Aladdin, The Lion King, and Frozen, with original Broadway Choreographer Matt West serving as director and choreographer. Before Belle stumbles upon the Beast’s castle, I had the pleasure of speaking with Swing and Mrs. Potts understudy Leigh-Ann Esty.
