​
From its infamous roots in the pantheon of horror, you've never seen a musical thriller quite like this!
Carrie the Musical is a high-octane production about a high school prank gone horribly wrong. When high school bullies and a twisted evangelical mother terrorise 17-year old Carrie White, a primal and destructive power is unshackled, hell bent on retribution and out for blood!
​
Based on the legendary novel by Stephen King, this harrowing tale of terror and full-throttle musical experience exposes the darkness within us all.
