Carousel
Musical Direction by Darren Cohen
Choreographed by Joshua Bergasse
Directed by Julianne Boyd

June 17, 2009 - July 11, 2009

Carousel, chosen “Best Musical of the Twentieth Century” by Time Magazine, will open BSC’s 15th Mainstage season with performances running from June 17 to July 11, 2009. In his autobiography, Richard Rodgers wrote about Carousel, “Oscar never wrote more meaningful or more moving lyrics, and to me, my score is more satisfying than anything I have ever written.” Carousel will be directed by Artistic Director Julianne Boyd, who has gathered together the same creative team who helmed the 2007 production of West Side Story: Darren Cohen as Musical Director and Joshua Bergasse as choreographer.

Adapted from Ferenc Molnar’s Liliom, Rodgers and Hammerstein moved the setting from Hungary to a New England coast town. Carousel tells the bittersweet love story between the carnival barker roustabout Billy Bigelow and the naïve young mill worker Julie Jordan. The glorious Carousel score includes “June is Bustin’ Out All Over,” “If I Loved You” and “You’ll Never Walk Alone.”

Single tickets will go on sale in early 2009 but FlexPass subscriptions, which include Carousel, can be purchased now by clicking here.
