Hello beautiful reader!
I was searching the internet and
was super happy to find two amazing plays that support this blog. Yes, another list post. This is because if you still
don´t believe what I´m saying about today´s beauty standard being positive
because society chose that we should all accept ourselves and be confident in
order to be seen as pretty, then go buy a ticket or google this awesome plays.
Lucky for the pretty person who is reading this, and needs a confidence
booster; both plays have been made into movies:

Hairspray
When it comes to
awesome musicals Hairpray has to be pretty high on that list. These play is
about: “Tracy Turnblad, an overweight teenager with all the right moves, is
obsessed with the Corny Collins Show. Every day after school, she and her best
friend Penny run home to watch the show and drool over the hot Link Larkin,
much to Tracy's mother Edna's dismay. After one of the stars of the show
leaves, Corny Collins holds auditions to see who will be the next person on the
Corny Collins show. With all of the help of her friend Seaweed, Tracy makes it
on the show, angering the evil dance queen Amber Von Tussle and her mother
Velma. Tracy then decides that it's not fair that the black kids can only dance
on the Corny Collins Show once a month, and with the help of Seaweed, Link,
Penny, Motormouth Maybelle, her father and Edna, she's going to integrate the
show.....without denting her 'do!” So, this one says it all that we should
accept ourselves just how we are and people will look at you as beautiful and
inspirational. Also,with confidence and being a little rebel, we can do
whatever we want.

Beauty and the Beast
Another classic!
This one you may already heard thanks for Disney and their Disney princess
Belle. The message of this play I really deep and it explains that the real
beauty is in our feelings and how we act. Here´s a synopsis so you can refresh
your memory:
“Based on the smash hit 1991
Disney movie and dating back to a late 18th-century classic French fairy tale,
Beauty and the Beast tell the story of Belle, a beautiful and intelligent young
woman who feels out of place in her provincial French village. When her father
is imprisoned in a mysterious castle, Belle’s attempt to rescue him leads to
her capture by the Beast, a grisly and fearsome monster, who was long ago
trapped in his gruesome form by an enchantress. The only way for the Beast to
become human once again is if he learns to love and be loved in return. There
is a time limit, too: once a magical rose loses all of its petals, all hope
will be lost and he will stay a Beast forever. The Beast’s enchanted
household--populated by such beloved characters as Mrs. Potts, Lumiere,
Cogsworth, and Chip--watch anxiously as Belle and the Beast grow to understand
and befriend one another. Their feelings grow ever deeper as the clock ticks
and petals continue to fall off the enchanted rose--will they confess their
love for one another before it is too late?”
