‘Beautiful’: The Carol King musical
Take some words, add some music and have Carol King meld it all into something “Beautiful.” That's what happened with the songs Carol King (a superb Jessie Mueller) created in her ingenious - sometimes - jarring life. “Beautiful” begins with songs by Carol, her husband Gerry Goffin (a moving Jake Epstein) and friends, and competitors Barry Mann (a loveable Jarrod Spector) and Cynthia Weil (outstanding Anika Larsen). It continues to the time when Carol leaves a bad marriage and reluctantly composes, writes lyrics, sings solo and records one of the most successful albums of all times - “Tapestry” - and finds her dream come true performing at Carnage Hall.
