Lansing, MI – Peppermint Creek Theatre Company is thrilled to announce its upcoming production of "Beautiful: The Carole King Musical," running from September 6 through September 22, 2024. This Tony and Grammy Award-winning musical tells the inspiring true story of Carole King’s remarkable rise to stardom, from her early days as a teenage songwriter to her emergence as one of the most successful solo acts in popular music history.
About This Show: “Beautiful: The Carole King Musical” is a musical journey through the life and career of Carole King, whose music shaped a generation. Featuring a stunning array of beloved hits like “You've Got a Friend,” “Natural Woman,” and “I Feel the Earth Move,” the show captures the heart and soul of King’s journey as she finds her voice, overcomes personal challenges, and creates timeless music that resonates with audiences worldwide.
Director's Vision: “Beautiful” Director, Meg Woolsey, explains what first drew her to this show, "When I first encountered Carole King's music at a young age, I was struck by its raw honesty and emotional depth. Her songs spoke to me in a way that was both personal and profound, capturing the universal struggles and triumphs we all face. This project has been an opportunity to explore and celebrate a remarkable woman whose work has touched so many lives.” Woolsey continues, “Carole King’s journey is a powerful testament to the strength and resilience of women who carve their own paths. Her story is a reminder of the impact that one woman’s voice and vision can have on the world.”
Chad Swan-Badgero, Artistic Director of Peppermint Creek Theatre Company, talks excitedly about “Beautiful”. "We are excited to bring her incredible story to life on stage and to share this powerful and uplifting musical with our community. We’ve never staged a biographical musical that so closely aligns with our mission to address current issues, in this case, the way women are too often overlooked and downplayed in society, and in business. We know Carole King’s story will really resonate with audiences."
The production features a talented cast of 20 local performers, dynamic choreography, and live music that will transport audiences back to the golden age of songwriting. Directed by Meg Woolsey, this production promises to be a memorable experience for both longtime fans of Carole King and those discovering her music for the first time.
