You ain’t seen nothing yet!
Based on the Stephen King novel of the same name, Carrie tells the familiar story of a lonely girl in a cruel teenage world.
Except this isn’t a story we’ve heard before.
Featuring a protagonist with telekinetic powers, a punchy pop-rock score, and a raucous ensemble, this musical sensation is a tale of high school revenge unlike any you’ve witnessed before – think Roald Dahl’s Matilda but with pig’s blood and added gore.
It’s going to be a night you’ll never forget!
This amateur production of Carrie: The Musical is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
Age guidance: 15+
