Dive into the world of immersive storytelling with Area Stage Company's captivating lineup of performances that promise to leave audiences spellbound. From the enchanting halls of the Beast's castle in 'Disney's Beauty and the Beast' to the resilient spirit of 'Annie Jr', and the world premiere of 'Lady Miasma', these productions are set to redefine theatrical experiences. Join us as we explore the magic and creativity behind these unique presentations, showcasing the talent and innovation that Area Stage Company is renowned for.
After two sold out runs at the Adrienne Arsht Center of the Performing Arts, Area Stage is proud to bring back our critically acclaimed immersive production of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast for one final encore run.
Described by one critic as a “visionary, urgent deconstruction,” this unique reimagining of the Tony-nominated musical invites audiences to step firsthand into the Belle's enchanted world. Once you decide to “Be Our Guest” and join us in the Beast’s castle, you’ll find yourself right in the middle of the action, which takes place throughout the theatre space rather than on a single stage. Beauty and the Beast's classic story of love and transformation is more exciting and affecting than ever in this resonant retelling, which has delighted and amazed audience members of all ages.
Based on the popular comic strip and adapted from the Tony Award-winning Best Musical, Annie Jr follows the plucky young red-head living in a New York City orphanage run by the evil Miss Hannigan… until she is taken in by America's richest billionaire, Oliver Warbucks.

(World Premiere Play) Some fairytales begin with a dream…others begin with a nightmare. Long ago in the distant land of Umbra, countless knights have met their end trying to rescue the Kingdom’s long-lost Princess Miasma from her towering prison. When a restless peasant boy named Bertram finally succeeds where others have failed, he uncovers a chilling secret: the true danger lies not in the tower, but in the Princess herself.
