Carrie at Nitsch Theatre Arts

CARRIE White is a misfit. At school, she’s an outcast who’s bullied by popular crowd, and virtually invisible to everyone else. At home, she’s at the mercy of her loving but cruelly over – protective mother. But CARRIE’s just discovered she’s got special power, and if pushed too far, she’s not afraid to use it…

Based on Stephen King’s bestselling novel, the musical CARRIE hasn’t been seen since its legendary 1988 Broadway production. Now, the show’s original authors have fully reworked and re-imagined their 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). Award winning actress Menchu Lauchengco-Yulo plays CARRIE’s mother, Margaret White.
