CARRIE THE MUSICAL heads to Ohio




Carrie is alive and well!

Mark Horning posted that Beck Center for the Arts and Baldwin Wallace University Music Theatre Program are collaborating to co-produce "Carrie: The Musical."  The show will run from February 7 through March 9, 2014 on the Mackey Main Stage. Show times will be 8:00 p.m., Fridays and Saturdays and 3:00 p.m. on Sundays.
The show is directed by Victoria Bussert (Director of Music Theatre at BWU) and stars Katherine DeBoer as the mother and Jodi Dominick as Mrs. Gardner, the phys-ed teacher (both appear courtesy of Actors Equity Association). Twenty actors from Baldwin University’s nationally recognized MT program make up the rest of the cast. Musical Direction is by Nancy Maier with Choreography by Gregory Daniels. The show features music by Michael Gore with lyrics by Dean Pitchford and book by Lawrence D. Cohen.

“I am very excited that the third annual Beck Center collaboration with Baldwin Wallace University Music Theatre program will bring Cleveland the local premiere of CARRIE the musical, based on the famous and infamous first novel by Stephen King,” remarked Bussert. “The collaboration has also brought highly-acclaimed productions of Spring Awakening and Next to Normal to the Beck Center stages.
Horning writes that the musical "pulses" with an  "amazing score ranging from high energy rock to epic melodies of nearly operatic proportion."

With a cast combining professional actors and Baldwin Wallace students, it promises to be a night you'll never forget!”
