Carrie White is a misfit. At school, she's an outcast
who's bullied by the popular crowd, and virtually
invisible to everyone else. At home, she's at the
mercy of her loving but cruelly overprotective
mother. But Carrie's just discovered she's got a
special power, and if pushed too far, she's not afraid
to use it...
Based on Stephen King's bestselling novel, the
musical of Carrie hasn't been seen since its
legendary 1988 Broadway production. Now, the
show's original authors have joined with director
Stafford Arima (Altar Boyz) and MCC Theater for a
newly reworked and fully reimagined vision of this
gripping tale. Set today, in the small town of
Chamberlain, Maine, Carrie 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).
