Carousel Musical Theatre Tickets at Savoy
Theatre - One of the truly great classic
musicals, Rodger’s and Hammerstein’s CAROUSEL
broke the mould with its gritty, courageous and
emotional look at relationships. The story of
the love affair between Billy Bigelow, a
smooth-talking carousel barker, and Julie
Jordan, a naïve young mill worker, CAROUSEL
is set to one of the most ravishing and
celebrated scores of all time, the composer
Rodger’s personal favourite, including The
Carousel Waltz, If I Loved You, June is Bustin’
Out All Over and You’ll Never Walk Alone.
CAROUSEL has captivated audiences across the
world since its original Broadway opening in
1945 and was lauded ‘Best Musical of its
Century’ by Time Magazine in 1999.
In this new production by award-winning
director, Lindsay Posner, Lesley Garrett,
CBE, Britain’s most popular soprano, who
recently lifted the roof at the London Palladium
as the Mother Abbess in The Sound of Music,
plays the pivotal role of ‘Nettie’. Lesley is
joined by Jeremiah James as ‘Billy
Bigelow’. Best-known as a member of the
internationally renowned recording group, TEATRO,
Jeremiah has also appeared in the Broadway
productions of Legally Blonde: The Musical, The
Full Monty and White Christmas. Playing ‘Julie
Jordan’ is Alexandra Silber, who was most
recently at London’s Savoy Theatre in the
award-winning production of Fiddler on the Roof.
Lindsay Posner has most recently directed
Fiddler On The Roof starring Henry Goodman at
The Savoy Theatre and The Crucible Theatre
Sheffield. Other credits include David Mamet’s A
Life in The Theatre with Patrick Stewart and
Oleanna with Julia Stiles and Aaron Eckhart, Sam
Shepherd’s Fool For Love with Juliette Lewis
(all West End), and Tom and Viv at the Almeida
Theatre. Choreographer Adam Cooper was
originally a principal dancer with the Royal
Ballet, before he famously took the lead role in
Matthew Bourne’s male Swan Lake. He subsequently
worked extensively in musical theatre starring
in On Your Toes, Singin’ in the Rain and more
recently as ‘Sky Masterson’ in the long running
West End hit Guys and Dolls.
