Book Reviews of Caroline, or Change

Book Review: LOUISIANA CAROLINE
Summary: 4 Stars

Let me say, I am a huge fan of Kushner's work, he is one of the most creative of his generation in theater. This story resonates with me because my mother grew up in Lake Charles and she was in high school when this story takes place, I love the fact Tony used Lake Charles, it's such a quenticential southern city, and it's perfect for the story he tells. I grew up in the south, but really am too young to have experienced the civil rights movement and ive only know Lake Charles as a lovely city, with friendly people, that is very peaceful. The story as told is riviting, and the musical score is perfect, you feel transported to 63 southern Louisiana and you feel the strain on Caroline and the times she lives in, Kushner said that the lady he based Caroline on is alive and well in Lake Charles, Im glad she lived to see Lake Charles as well as the South change, it may not be all the way there, but man has it come a long way in short time, believe me. The stage show is showing in Houston right now, and Kushner said this is the closest it's gotten to Lake Charles..let's hope it makes it at some point to the city that inspired it.
