Carousel
The Media Theatre
104 E. State Street Media
With one of the most emotionally powerful books in musical-theater history and immortal songs like "If I Loved You," "June Is Bustin' Out All Over" and "You'll Never Walk Alone," it's easy to understand why Rodgers & Hammerstein's Carousel was named Time magazine's "Best Musical of the 20th Century." It's the poignant and heartbreaking story of swaggering, carefree carnival barker Billy Bigelow, who captivates the naive millworker Julie. As luck would have it, just as they learn that Julie's pregnant, Billy loses his job -- and gets involved in a bank robbery to make ends meet. Things go horribly awry, but years later Billy gets the chance to see his wife and the daughter he never knew. How Billy instills in both his child and her mother a sense of hope and dignity is a dramatic testimony to the power of love. Experience the show Rodgers & Hammerstein named as their own personal favorite when Carousel comes to life at The Media Theatre near Philly.
