Enchanted Tales with Belle vs the live Beauty and the Beast show in HS?

[Geekella]

Forgive my ignorance. Never been to DW yet!

I loooooove Beauty and the Beast. My husband? He doesn't mind it but it's not like he's a huge fan. It will only be us, no kids

What are the differences between the two in the title? How long are they?

I want to go to at least one, and I'll try to make it the one that will make my husband less bored lol

Thanks!

The live show is a theatrical presentation of the story. The other is a kids version of the story that has an interactive element for the kids.

Hello fellow Beauty and the Beast fan!
You should make an effort to do both if you can manage. I'd say each are around 30 minutes (without waiting).

Even though Enchanted Tales is geared towards children, it' really neat to walk throughout the house and the library. I say the live show is not to be missed. Fun costumes, dancing, and song - it's one of my favorites!

While Tales with Belle is cute especially for kids, no comparison. Hands down go see Lives Beauty and the Beast. As good as any theater play to me. One I never miss when I'm there and yes it always makes me tear up.

Enchanted tales with Belle IMHO is not worth your time. We were curious just after it opened and were quite disappointed. If you're a fan of cardboard and stories condensed to 5 minutes then you are in for a real treat! Maurice's magic mirror is the only real magical portion of this (and I hesitate to call it ) show.

It says here most is pre recorded but when the individuals sing its live.

You can check out both on YouTube but only for a minute so as not to spoil it. Lol...

My girlfriend and I are big Beauty and the Beast fans. Enchanted Tales was a big meh for us and felt like a waste of a fastpass, but I imagine kids would love it. The musical is really entertaining however.

Enchanted Tales is kind of cool because you can be part of the interactive show (well, adults can mainly be knights or extras) but by being in the show you can get your picture with Belle in her yellow dress (idk if you can do that anywhere else in WDW).

The live show is basically a stage show focusing on the main/major scenes from the movie, and is actually pretty good. I don't know about the singing being live or not, but I think it is, mainly because sometimes the singers are better than other times.

Only Belle and Gaston sing live, all other characters/cast members lip sync to the pre-recorded tracks.
