I love Carrie but I recognize that it's always going to be a little ridiculous. Looks like they're going for broke here, though.

This production Ripley is doing in Seattle is using the revised version of the show that was done here in New York by MCC, but the theater's website also claims they've added eight "ensemble" members in addition to all the named characters. I'm curious how that expansion works, though it makes sense considering how large the theater it will play in is.

As others have said, those photos seem completely off base. It made me think of the original production- didn't Betty Buckley wear similar lingerie in black during "When There's No One"?

^It was similar yes.

I'm sorry I love this show, but that picture with the knife and the pie is just flat our ridiculous.

I know someone involved with the production in LA and it is still happening, but has been pushed back until the spring in order to accommodate some scheduling issues.

It is a different version than the MCC production and will be completely re-envisioned in an environmental setting.

I didn't realize that R&H was allowing the LA production to make changes to the script. Or that the authors would allow anyone to make additional changes at this point.

"Not faulting Alice because this is a part she was born to play, but those production stills are awful-not artful in the slightest. Were they taken with a Nikon Coolpix? Just tragic."

While I agree with you on the stills being awful, it isn't because of the camera. It's the photographer who's at fault.

BTW, the Nikon Coolpix is an excellent camera.

My understanding is that it IS the text of the Arima revival but is not based on the staging of that production. The licensed script allows for a larger ensemble, making it less of a chamber piece.

Alice is probably great in this, and I like the show. I hope it's a big hit.

I abhor this show...why does it exist.

It's a testament to the hope of the human spirit that somehow the I workability of Carrie:The Musical will magically resolve themselves.
