Stephen Kings CARRIE

This rarely performed work combines gripping drama, emotional depth and a haunting musical realisation.


With music by Michael Gore, lyrics by Dean Pitchford and the book by Lawrence D. Cohen, a dark and moving story about marginalisation, longing and supernatural forces unfolds. The German version is by Martin Wessels-Behrens and Judith Behrens and brings the intensity of the original to German in an impressive way.

Experience a musical that gets under your skin - intense, extraordinary and rarely seen in Berlin.

Carrie White is a shy and reserved girl who is bullied by her classmates and suppressed by her strictly religious mother Margaret. When Carrie discovers her extraordinary telekinetic powers, she unleashes a chain of dramatic events that lead to a furious climax. With a powerful blend of haunting music, intense emotion and a timeless story of marginalisation, toxic love and revenge, the musical ‘Carrie’ based on Stephen King's novel explores the borders between fear and hope, between shadow and light.
