Synopsis:
In this revamped, contemporary version of the famous (and
infamous) 1988 Broadway production, Carrie: The Musical follows a young woman
with telekinetic powers. An outcast at school, where she is bullied viciously
for her differences, Carrie is also lost at home, with a fervently religious
mother whose love traps her in its maw. When PE teacher Miss Gardner, kind
classmate Sue Snell, and boyfriend Tommy Ross reach out to try and help Carrie,
it seems that for once, Carrie might have a shot at being accepted. But Chris
Hargensen, the class’s most vicious
bully, has other ideas. Pushed to the brink, Carrie’s powers threaten to overwhelm her.
