Houston Grand Opera presents Carousel

Houston Grand Opera presents Carousel, a testimony to the power of young love, desperation, and one man's redemption. Performances will be April 29 and 30 and May 6 all starting at 7:30 PM at the Wortham Theater Center.

Shortly after a young carnival worker, Billy Bigelow, and local mill girl Julie Jordan fall in love and marry, they're faced with hardship that leads to a devastating loss. But Billy receives one last chance from beyond the grave to save his family's future.

Carousel was named by Time magazine as the best musical of the 20th century for its beautiful score and affecting storytelling, and it makes its way to the HGO stage for the first time in 25 years. It contains Broadway classics like “If I Loved You,” “June is Bustin' Out All Over,” and “You'll Never Walk Alone.”

A co-production of Houston Grand Opera and Lyric Opera of Chicago.
