She wrote the soundtrack to a generation.  Beautiful  tells the touching and true story of chart-topping musical legend Carole King’s remarkable rise to stardom: beginning as an ordinary girl with extraordinary talent, charting her rock ‘n roll songwriting with husband Gerry Goffin, exploring her relationship to fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann, and forging her path to becoming one of the most successful and enduring solo artists in popular music history.

Chock full of your favorite hits like “One Fine Day,” “Will You Love Me Tomorrow,” “The Locomotion,” “(You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman,” “You’ve Got a Friend,” and so many more, Beautiful  is more than just beautiful music— it’s an inspiring story of a groundbreaking female artist who forged her own path in the male-dominated music industry, finding her own true voice and moving the earth for us all.

A Letter From Lisa

by Lisa Shriver, Beautiful Director/Choreographer

A blonde woman wearing a black top and tan jacket smiling at the camera

I stood in front of a gym filled with students and parents. The music of “You’ve Got a Friend” swelled and, in my most emotive voice, I sang into the mic, “Close your eyes and think of me.” It was one line, but I felt like a star!

I fell in love with this song—not only because it gave me a chance to step into the spotlight, but because I was entranced by the beautiful melody and lyrics that made even a 12 year old feel like they were her own .

Many years passed before I really knew of Carole King, how her songs shaped rock n’ roll and how she redefined the role of women songwriters in the music industry.

A woman with long curly blonde-brown hair sings into a stick microphone with her eyes closed

Only then did I realize how much of Carole King’s music had scored my own lifetime of moments:

  • being serenaded with “You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling” by a high school crush shortly after the premiere of Top Gun
  • nursing a broken heart with “One Fine Day” on repeat, and
  • showing off on the dance floor of way too many weddings to “The Locomotion.”

It made sense that I knew the songs before I knew the writer.

One of the many unique qualities about Carole King’s stardom is that she never set out to be a star. Her music was the star.

A woman wearing a red dress with long curly blonde hair plays a black grand piano with shiny purple and gold globe lights shining behind her

And when she finally found her own voice as a lyricist and as a recording artist, she created one of the most iconic and beloved albums of all time .

Since its release in 1971, Tapestry has sold over 25 million copies worldwide. With its raw and soulful songs, it solidified Carole King as a voice of her generation .

You hear a few bars of any track from Tapestry and, like seeing an old friend, you are immediately transported back to the moments, the relationships, and the experiences colored by the sound and emotion of these songs—moments like a 6th grade chorus concert and a 12-year-old’s chance to shine.

I hope you’ll warmly recall your own “moments” when you hear the music of Village Theatre’s production of Beautiful: The Carole King Musical .

And I hope your time in the theatre will provide you with a brand-new experience to enjoy and remember.

—Lisa Shriver, Beautiful Director/Choreographer

Long before she was Carole King, chart-topping music legend, she was Carol Klein, Brooklyn girl with passion and chutzpah. She fought her way into the record business as a teenager and, by the time she reached her twenties, had the husband of her dreams and a flourishing career writing hits for the biggest acts in rock ‘n’ roll. But it wasn’t until her personal life began to crack that she finally managed to find her true voice.

BEAUTIFUL — The Carole King Musical  tells the inspiring true story of King’s remarkable rise to stardom, from being part of a hit songwriting team with her husband Gerry Goffin, to her relationship with fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann, to becoming one of the most successful solo acts in popular music history. Along the way, she made more than beautiful music, she wrote the soundtrack to a generation.

Featuring a stunning array of beloved songs written by Gerry Goffin/Carole King and Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil, including “I Feel The Earth Move,” “One Fine Day,” “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “You’ve Got A Friend” and the title song,  Beautiful has a book by Tony Award ® nominee and Academy Award ® -nominated writer Douglas McGrath, direction by Marc Bruni, choreography by Josh Prince and took home two 2014 Tony Awards and the 2015 Grammy ® for Best Musical Theater Album.

WHAT IS BEAUTIFUL THE CAROLE KING MUSICAL ABOUT?

HER NAME IS CAROLE KING. HER STORY IS BEAUTIFUL.

BEAUTIFUL is the untold story of Carole King’s journey from schoolgirl to superstar; from her relationship with husband and song-writing partner Gerry Goffin, their close friendship and playful rivalry with fellow song-writing duo Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, to her remarkable rise to stardom becoming one of the most successful solo acts in popular music history.

Long before she was Carole King, the chart-topping music legend, she was an ordinary girl with an extraordinary talent.

She fought her way into the record business as a teenager and sold her first hit, Will You Love Me Tomorrow , when she was just seventeen.

By the time she reached her twenties she had the husband of her dreams and a flourishing career writing hits for the biggest acts in rock ‘n’ roll from Aretha Franklin to The Monkees , The Drifters , to The Shirelles .

She wrote the soundtrack to a generation, with countless classics such as You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman , Take Good Care of my Baby , You’ve Got a Friend , So Far Away , It Might As Well Rain Until September , Up on the Roof , and Locomotion . 

But it wasn’t until her personal life began to crack that she finally managed to find her true voice.

The Bushnell announces seven Broadway series shows for 2024-25 season

The Bushnell Performing Arts Center in Hartford announced its 2024-25 Broadway series of musicals on Monday.

The slate of shows for the upcoming season includes the Neil Diamond bio-musical “A Beautiful Noise” Oct. 1-6, 2024; the return of Disney’s “The Lion King” Nov. 13-Dec. 1, 2024; “MJ the Musical” Dec. 10-15, 2024; a radically rethought revival of “Peter Pan” Feb. 4-9, 2025; “The Wiz” March 11-16, 2025; “Some Like It Hot” April 29-May 4, 2025; and “Back to the Future the Musical” June 4-8, 2025.

The schedule breaks down to two jukebox musicals, two refreshed and reinterpreted 20th-century musical classics and three musical versions of famous movies (one of them from Disney).

The Bushnell continues its tradition of hosting the first national tours of recent Broadway hits. Two of the shows, “MJ” and “Back to the Future,” are still running on Broadway as their first national tours commence. The Broadway production of “Some Like It Hot” closed in December after running for around a year. “The Wiz,” a revival of the 1974 Black version of “The Wizard of Oz,” is touring before it gets to Broadway, playing The Bushnell less than three weeks before it begins preview performances at New York’s Marquis Theatre.

Besides the seven shows in the subscription season, The Bushnell announced return bookings of two musicals that have already played the venue in recent years: “Les Miserables” from Oct. 29 to Nov. 3, 2024, and the concert-style British history lesson “Six” Dec. 31, 2024 through Jan. 5, 2025. Various tours of “Les Mis” have been coming to The Bushnell since 1989, most recently in 2017. When “Six” happens, it will be only two years since the first tour of the show about the six wives of Henry VIII played The Bushnell in January 2023.

Tickets are not yet available. Bushnell Broadway series subscribers are contacted first about renewing their subscriptions. Then, new subscriptions are offered to those not currently subscribing. Finally, months from now, single tickets will go on sale for the shows.

Of the seven subscription shows, five are the first national tours of new musicals that have never appeared at The Bushnell. The other two, “Peter Pan” and “The Wiz,” first came to The Bushnell decades ago but in very different forms. This new production of “Peter Pan” has been rewritten by playwright Larissa Fasthorse (Broadway’s “The Thanksgiving Play”), with a particular interest in reworking the original script’s objectionable depictions of Native Americans.

“Some Like It Hot” is based on the 1959 film comedy directed by Billy Wilder and starring Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon and Marilyn Monroe. It’s not the first time the movie has been turned into a musical. A previous attempt, “Sugar,” by Jule Styne, Bob Merrill and Peter Stone ran on Broadway in 1972 and (retitled as “Some Like It Hot”) played the Shubert Theatre in New Haven in 2002. This new one has a score by the “Hairspray” and TV “Smash” team of Scott Wittman and Marc Shaiman and a book by Matthew López and Amber Ruffin. López has had several of his plays (including the world premieres of “Somewhere” and “Reverberation”) produced by Hartford Stage, which also commissioned (but did not end up producing) his Tony-winning epic “The Inheritance.”

Ruffin, best known as a writer/performer on “Late Night with Seth Meyers” and for her now-defunct “Amber Ruffin Show” on Peacock, also had a hand in the tour of “The Wiz,” adding new material to the show’s book.

It took years, but The Bushnell has finally caught up with the backlog of Broadway series shows whose visits to Hartford were delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic. The last straggler was “The Cher Show,” which was originally scheduled to play The Bushnell in November of 2020 and finally arrived earlier this month. This will likely be the first season since 2021 which has not had to make room for delayed runs of musicals originally planned for previous seasons.

The 2024-25 season begins in the fall. There are still three more Broadway shows coming in the current 2023-24 season: the “Wizard of Oz” prequel “Wicked” April 24 through May 12, “Beetlejuice” May 28 through June 2 and “Funny Girl” June 18-23.

The Shubert in New Haven announced its own 2024-25 Broadway series slate last week with “Tina: The Tina Turner Musical,” “Dear Evan Hansen,” “Clue,” “Mean Girls” and “Ain’t Too Proud: The Life & Times of the Temptations.” All but one of those shows, the non-musical play “Clue,” has already played The Bushnell on earlier tours. Other Connecticut theaters that host Broadway tours, such as the Waterbury Palace, will announce their 2024-25 seasons soon.

‘Peter Pan’ star brings powerful representation to Tiger Lily role

Actress raye zaragoza celebrates her native american heritage in a bold new way in a revamped production of the musical..

Raye Zaragoza stars as Tiger Lily in the national touring production of "Peter Pan."

"Peter Pan" is flying again in a revamped take on the Tony Award-winning show beginning March 26 at the James M. Nederlander Theatre.

While the story’s lead character remains steadfast about never wanting to grow up, the team behind the stage production has found a way to beautifully evolve J.M. Barrie’s 100-year-old classic.

And it’s a Neverland that we’ve never seen.

Teaming up with the show’s Emmy Award-winning director Lonny Price ("Sunset Boulevard," "Lady Day at Emerson’s Bar and Grill") is acclaimed playwright Larissa FastHorse ("The Thanksgiving Play," "What Would Crazy Horse Do?"). In addition to wanting to keep alive the production's themes of childhood enchantment and wonder, they also put a large focus on representation — in particular, improving upon the tropes seen in previous adaptations where Neverland character Tiger Lily and her tribe were reduced to stereotypical Native American caricatures.

“It was very hurtful,” FastHorse, who is a member of the Sicangu Lakota Nation, said in an interview with Playbill earlier this year, when discussing the play's original script. “There’s an assumption that we exist as something to be hunted and fought with and battled and killed. To see our reality put out there as something fun and silly was difficult.”

For the new “Peter Pan” production, she reinterpreted the characters as Indigenous descendants who “all go to Neverland to preserve their culture. Neverland is something that’s helping them and saving them, keeping their culture alive until maybe one day they can find a way to bring it back.”

As part of the incredibly diverse cast — which also includes Nolan Almeida as Peter Pan, Hawa Kamara as Wendy and Cody Garcia as Captain Hook — is Raye Zaragoza in a breakout role of Tiger Lily.

“As a kid, I remember Peter Pan as this magical boy … and then there’s this [side] story about this Native American girl … [who’s] just tied up for a lot of her scenes. It was a harmful stereotype,” Zaragoza, who is of Japanese, Mexican and Native American (Akimel O'otham) heritage, recalled in a recent phone interview. “And that’s why I was really passionate about re-creating Tiger Lily … It felt like an amazing opportunity and responsibility.”

In recent years, L.A.-based Zaragoza has made waves for her work as a singer-songwriter, contributing songs to the Netflix series “Spirit Rangers” and crafting her own beautiful folk protest songs like “American Dream” and “In The River.” The latter is a track released in 2017 in support of Standing Rock in light of the proposed Dakota Access Pipeline.

Yet acting was an early interest for Zaragoza, too, especially after seeing her father, actor Gregory Zaragoza, take on iconic roles, including Chief Sitting Bull in an early ‘90s reprisal of “Annie Get Your Gun” that starred Bernadette Peters and Tom Wopat.

After the younger Zaragoza found her footing in musical theater in high school, she met Larissa FastHorse during a workshop at the Native Voices company at the Autry in Los Angeles, and the two have remained close over the years, leading to the opportunity for Zaragoza to audition to play Tiger Lily.

“What I loved about our early conversations was that Larissa and Sarafina Bush, who did the costuming [for ‘Peter Pan’], wanted to pull from me and wanted to base the costuming off of my ancestry … the whole indigenous tribe. Everyone’s costumes are based off their family’s ancient heritage,” Zaragoza said.

She added the whole production has been an “amazing learning process” that also translates to her work as a music artist.

“As someone who doesn’t necessarily identify as an actor, I found I can be myself [as Tiger Lily]. I can find the anchor and empowerment within me to bring that to this brave warrior girl. Tiger Lily is just trying to preserve the culture of her tribe, and she’s trying to prove to all the boys on the island that she’s strong enough and that she’s capable, and that’s literally my life as a musician in an industry that’s predominately male and predominately non-Native,” said Zaragoza, whose latest album, “Hold That Spirit,” was released in 2023 on her label, Rebel River Records.

"I feel like Tiger Lily’s struggle to prove her worth and to prove her capabilities is just parallel to my own life.”

Even now, Zaragoza is finding inspiration on tour with the production, which she says she will take into her next venture.

“My next goal is I want to write a musical, so I’m here doing some research,” she said with a chuckle, before conceding, “It’s an incredibly exciting time for Native voices, and there is a long way to go, but all we can do is keep having these conversations and keep creating.”
