NNOS presents Carousel
This event is in the past
Following the phenomenal success of their spectacular centenary productions Singin’ in the rain and Les Misérables, Norfolk and Norwich Operatic Society are thrilled to announce their 2026 show: Rodgers and Hammerstein’s timeless masterpiece, CAROUSEL.
CAROUSEL tells the dramatic love story of carnival worker Billy Bigelow, who falls for the sweet yet naive Julie Jordan at the carousel. As romance blossoms, their happiness is tragically disrupted when wayward sailor Jigger convinces Billy to take part in a robbery, with devastating consequences. It’s a powerful tale of hope, redemption, and the enduring strength of love.
This exciting new production will be brought to life with stunning direction and choreography by Adam Haigh.
Accompanied by a 26-piece orchestra, the beautiful score features beloved songs such as If I Loved You, What’s the Use of Wonderin’, June is Bustin’ Out All Over, and the iconic, heart-rending You’ll Never Walk Alone.
