CAROLINE, OR CHANGE centers its action on the Gellman family and their African-American maid, Caroline. It is 1963 in sleepy Lake Charles, Louisiana. Caroline is drifting through her life as a single mother of four working in a service job to a white family. A fragile, yet beautiful friendship develops between the young Gellman son, Noah (who has lost his mother), and Caroline. Noah's stepmother Rose, unable to give Caroline a raise, tells Caroline that she may keep the money Noah leaves in his pockets. Caroline balks, and refuses to take money from a child--but her own children desperately need food, clothing and shoes...
Tony Kushner brings his remarkable talent to the book and lyrics. Jeanine Tesori's skillful and varied score enlivens the nearly sung-through musical. Each role is fully realized; complicated and deeply human. The characters must either embrace or reject the larger social changes that are in motion. There are no easy choices for the characters to make.
