Carnival
The "Love Makes the World Go 'Round" Musical
Music & Lyrics by Bob Merrill
Book by Michael Stewart based on material by Helen Deutsch
After the death of her father, Lili, an innocent young woman, seeks employment amongst the jaded denizens of a seedy carnival touring the south of France. She soon becomes the pawn in a fierce rivalry for her affection between Marco the Magnificent, the troupe's compulsively womanizing cut-rate magician and Paul Berthalet, a former French Resistance hero and once a brilliant dancer, who has been transformed by injury into an embittered puppeteer. With a glorious score filled with unmistakably familiar tunes, this romantic musical is bound to tug at your heartstrings!
