DEMOREST, Ga. â The Piedmont College Conservatory of Music and Department of Theatre will present Rodgers and Hammerstein sÂ
Carousel live Feb. 25-28 at the Swanson Mainstage Theatre.
The cast and crew includes Johnny Goodwyn of Moultrie, Ga.
Carousel opened on Broadway in April 1945 and was adapted as a major motion picture in 1945. It also had Broadway revivals in 1994 and 2018. Working with elements of redemption and forgiveness, the creative team of Richard Rogers and Oscar Hammerstein take the audience to a small town in Maine. Many claim that the score is the most operatic of all the team s musicals. The script follows anti-hero Billy Bigelow and tackles relationship issues rarely discussed in the mid-1940s. Piedmont s production hopes to highlight that the destination is only half as powerful as the journey.Â
