Description

Directed by Joseph Meighan 

Musical Direction by Mark Goggins 

Book by Douglas McGrath Words and Music by Gerry Goffin & Carole King and Barry Mann & Cynthia Weil 


Before she was hit-maker Carole King — she was Carole Klein, a spunky, young songwriter from Brooklyn with a unique voice. Telling the inspiring true story of King’s remarkable rise to stardom, the chart-topping hits she wrote for the biggest acts in music with her husband Gerry Goffin, to her relationship with fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann, to her own life-changing, trailblazing success with Tapestry, Beautiful: The Carole King Musical takes you back to where it all began — and takes you on the ride of a lifetime! 


Along the way, she wrote the soundtrack to a generation, with countless classics such as "You've Got a Friend", "One Fine Day", "So Far Away", "Take Good Care of My Baby", "Up on the Roof", "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling", “The Loco-Motion”, “It’s Too Late”, “Will You Love Me Tomorrow", and “(You Make Me Feel like a) Natural Woman", this Tony® and Grammy® Award-winning musical phenomenon is filled with the songs you remember and a story you'll never forget.
