About this item
Inside every beast beats the heart of an actor or so the Beast would have you believe in No Lie, I Acted Like a Beast! This retelling of the classic story Beauty and the Beast, told from the Beasts point of view, paints a picture of a kind-hearted prince who wants nothing more than his turn on the stage. A fun ride that flips what you know of the fairy tale on its ear.
