Opera North

The must-see musical of 2012, Rodgers and Hammerstein's musical Carousel is brought vividly to life in an outstanding new stage production by Opera North.

Set in a small seaside community, Carousel is a story of true love and the tragedy of feelings left unspoken. With American baritone Eric Greene as Billy, and young British soprano Gillene Herbert as Julie, an exceptional creative team brings a fresh vision to Carousel for the 21st century, led by director Jo Davies. Set and costume design is by Olivier-award winner Anthony Ward, who has designed numerous Broadway and West End shows.

One of the greatest Broadway musicals of the 20th century, this timeless American classic is recreated in a vibrant staging combining evocative design, gripping storytelling and powerful musical performance.
