Write good 3 paragraph summary of story and experience
seeing it on stage. *can do this at home*
The Goodspeed Theater
is the third oldest theater in the whole country. It is located in Hartford
Connecticut and Grandpa Mike and Grandma Linda took me to see “Carousel” in it
on Wednesday night. The show is about a barker on a Carousel name Billy Bigaloo
in Bangor Maine! He falls in love with a girl named Julie Jordan and she
somehow she loves him too. They get married but Billy isn’t so much of a good husband.
Julie tells him that she is going to have a baby and he is so happy. He sings a
soliloquy about his baby and realizes throughout the song that he needs money
to give the child all that it needs.
In Act two he realizes
that the only way to get money is to become a criminal which is the total
opposite of what he needs to do, the man that they were trying to rob had a gun
and he shot Billy in the stomach and he ended up dying, Julie was absolutely heartbroken.
Now her baby had to grow up living
without a father and Julie will miss the only man she ever loved so much. She
never even got to tell Billy how much she loved him. Now Billy has an angel
take him to the sky where he meets the Star keeper who says that Billy can go
back to Earth for one visit, and that his fifteen year old daughter is having
trouble with growing up. Louise, Billy’s daughter, always gets teased by the
other kids about her father and she is really sad. Her graduation is coming up
and Billy goes down to talk to Louise about himself and accidently ends up
hitting her. Louise runs inside and starts crying, Billy is upset and asks the
angel if he can go to her graduation and there he makes Louise happy again, and
then he gets to go to heaven.
The actor, who played Billy, was in over 15 different Broadway
shows and was in about 12 TV shows!
The actress who played Julie was in Jekyll and Hyde on
Broadway for many years as Emma and she was wonderful. Julie’s best friend
Carrie was my favorite character, she was really funny she was on Suite life of
Zack and Cody.
