Angela Lansbury revives ‘Beauty and the Beast’ role in NY
NEW YORK (AP) — For one night only, Angela Lansbury served audiences a live performance as Mrs. Potts.
The actress revived her beloved character from the Disney animated musical “Beauty and the Beast” during a 25th anniversary screening Sunday at Lincoln Center in New York.
In videos of the event posted online , Lansbury sang the musical’s title track and sweetly capped off the performance with a few lines from the film: “Run along and get in the cupboard, Chip. It’s time you was in bed. Night, night.”
Lansbury was accompanied by “Beauty and the Beast” composer Alan Menken on the piano for the spontaneous post-screening performance.
