  3. Caroline, or Change


Set in Louisiana in 1963, the Tony-nominated Caroline, or Change is a riveting, fantastical and awe-inspiring musical that takes place during one of the most dramatic times in Americas history. Featuring a score that blends blues, gospel and traditional Jewish melodies, Caroline, or Change provides a breathtaking medium for playwright Tony Kushners (Angels in America) provocative and personal story. Caroline, or Change follows the Gellman family, their African-American maid and her family as they all come to grips with a seemingly crippling deluge of political change, social change and pocket change.

BWW Review: CAROLINE, OR CHANGE at Ray Of Light Theatre Thrills and Inspires
September 18, 2019

There is just something so damned exciting about Tony Kushner and Jeanine Tesori's 'Caroline, or Change'! It is rare indeed to experience a work of art this ambitious, morally complex, entertaining, honest, and just plain downright human. It is easily one of the handful of best musicals written in the past 25 years. And how original - a musical play about nothing less than the human capacity for change and growth despite seemingly insurmountable odds. For anyone out there bemoaning the dumbing-down of the American musical theater and longing for the halcyon days of Broadway's supposed Golden Age, you need look no further than 'Caroline' to restore your confidence.
