"CARRIE the musical" explores themes of bullying, isolation, and the power of fear. The story follows Carrie White, a young girl who is constantly tormented by her classmates at school and abused by her overbearing, religious mother at home. As her powers grow stronger, Carrie becomes a ticking time bomb, leading to a prom night that ends in tragedy.

The musical features a mix of intense and emotional songs, capturing both the teenage angst of the characters and the horror elements of the story. Some of the well-known songs from the show include "Carrie," "The World According to Chris," "And Eve Was Weak," and "You Shine."
