Warning: CARRIE, THE MUSICAL contains strong language, dark issues, adult themes and acted violence. Please use discretion when booking tickets for children. CARRIE, THE MUSICAL is a dark comedy and exists to combat its own subject matter. It’s a show about high school and contains uncensored high school vernacular.
Carrie White is a teenage outcast who longs to fit in. At school, she’s bullied by the popular crowd, and virtually invisible to everyone else. At home, she’s dominated by her loving but cruelly controlling mother. What none of them know is that Carrie’s just discovered she’s got a special power, and if pushed too far, she’s not afraid to use it.
Set in the present in the small New England town of Chamberlain, Maine, Carrie: The Musical features a book by Lawrence D. Cohen (screenwriter of the classic film), music by Academy Award winner Michael Gore (Fame, Terms of Endearment), and lyrics by Academy Award winner Dean Pitchford (Fame, Footloose).
