Caroline, or Change Tickets
Tony Kushner’s Caroline, or Change returns to Broadway for the first time since 2004. Starring Olivier Award winner Sharon D. Clarke as the eponymous Caroline Thibodeaux, this story of civil rights and personal upheaval will run at Studio 54 Theatre.
After critically acclaimed runs at Chichester Festival Theatre, Hampstead Theatre and London’s West End, Michael Longhurst’s revival of Caroline, or Change marks the musical’s welcome return to Broadway, starring Olivier Award winner Sharon D. Clarke.
Set in 1960s Louisiana, the musical follows house African American woman Caroline Thibodeaux, who works as a maid for a white Jewish family. Sporting a big imagination that sees the humdrum laundry room transformed into a spinning world of possibilities, Caroline is allowed to keep any loose change left in her employers’ clothes.
This arrangement is soon disrupted when 8-year-old Noah leaves a $20 note in his pocket; during a time of huge social and political upheaval, Caroline discovers that even the smallest acts can spiral into moral dilemmas.
