HKUST Community Musical 2026 - Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Carousel

Rodgers & Hammerstein's Carousel  is both heartfelt and thought-provoking. Set in a quiet coastal village in early 20th century Maine coastal village, it follows a carnival barker Billy Bigelow and millworker Julie Jordan as they navigate love, hardship, and the consequences of difficult choices. The story explores themes of life, love, death, forgiveness, and eternity in a bittersweet musical that celebrates family, resilience, and the enduring power of redemption. Recommended for ages 12 and up.
