“Currently in the middle of writing my senior capstone for my undergrad about adaptations to stage, and this freaking saved me so much! I got so much information and background on this production that I couldn’t find anywhere else. Definitely worth a listen if you too are a musical/broadway...”Read full review »

“Couldn’t have possibly enjoyed this more. I love theater but barely knew of Carrie when I started listening. Less than a week later I’m bingeing bootlegs on YouTube.

A seriously in depth view of how Carrie The Musical went wrong, voiced by those who were there, but still endures and continues to...”Read full review »

The small bits that I found out there on the internet just weren’t enough. The book ”Not Since Carrie” wasn’t enough. But Out for...”Read full review »

“Carrie the Musical
Even though I was born in the 21st century, I can still say that Carrie the Musical is my one favourite musical in the whole wide world! The critics said in 1988, that Carrie was blasphemous and horrible, well guess what? You critics are the reason why you ruin everyone’s...”Read full review »
