Carousel: Screening and Discussion

The Paley Center will screen the two-hour Armstrong Circle Theatre adaptation of Rodgers and Hammerstein’s classic musical Carousel, which was broadcast in color on May 7, 1967, on ABC-TV.  The special starred Robert Goulet as Billy Bigelow, Mary Grover as Julie Jordan, Marlyn Mason as Carrie, Patricia Neway as Nettie, Jack DeLon as Mr. Snow, and Pernell Roberts as Jigger, with famed veteran Charlie Ruggles as the Starkeeper.

Following the screening there will be a discussion with dancers Bambi Linn (“Louise” in the original Broadway production of Carousel) and Gemze de Lappe, who both had a long association with the choreographer Agnes de Mille—and rare 1945 film footage of Ms. Linn dancing Carousel’s Act II “Ballet” will be shown.
