Reversal of Beauty
On her deathbed, Beast's governess makes him promise to save her spoiled daughter, Beauty, from herself. Beast is convinced that he can reform the cantankerous Beauty, and fall in love with him, saving him from his own curse of being a beast. This does not bode well for Beast's best friend and a servant in his castle, Camille, who has been in love with him for her entire life. Between Beauty's explosive temper tantrums and Camille's sharp tongue, the two are put on a collision course for disaster.
Gossip: The Evil Stepmother's Tale
Isabella has made her story known to the world as the ever-famous “Cinderella.” Once she was made Queen, no one dared to question her fantastical tale. More importantly, no one ever asked her evil stepmother, the Countess De Leon, what really happened in the house those many years ago. They never heard about Isabella’s strange cleaning habits, her overly indulgent imagination, or who her fairy godmother truly was. After seven years in seclusion, the Countess De Leon finally finds the opportune moment to tell her side the Queen’s very twisted tale.
