CAREY
THE EMANCIPATION OF MIMI
Written and co-created by Alexander Cruz
Directed and co-created by Emilio Ramos
Based on Stephen King’s novel “Carrie” & the songbook of Mariah Carey
Carrie White moves things with her mind.
Mariah Carey moves people with her voice.
Both used their gifts to break free of their circumstances…
This isn’t your typical jukebox musical, darling, nor is it a replica of Stephen King’s masterpiece. We’ve crafted a unique narrative that infuses Mariah’s iconic melodies with the emotional core of Carrie, delivering a delicious blend of comedy, horror, and some seriously high notes!
