Carrie The Musical!
Bug's Backyard Theatre presents:
CARRIE THE MUSICAL!
In this revamped version of the 1988 production, Carrie: The Musical follows a teen girl with telekinetic powers. An outcast at school, where she is viciously bullied for her differences, Carrie is also lost at home, with a fervently religious mother. 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' most vicious bully, has other ideas.
