We went to see Carole King at The Congress and it was incredible
Do you know who Carole King is? No neither did we, but it turns out she’s written loads of famous songs – most – you will probably know all of the lyrics to. Not to mention, she has her own albums full of her singing her own songs as well.
We found out all about it at the weekend when we went to see Beautiful – The Carole King musical. The show follows her incredible career, which started when she was 16 and became a song writer. She then went on to meet her husband and they collaborated of loads of songs together over a decade or so. She wrote the music and he came up with the lyrics.
Some of those songs being – Take Good Care of My Baby, Will You Love Me Tomorrow, The Loco-Motion.
The show follows her rise to stardom, with each song, you see her personal struggles and also how she ended up singing in stage herself.
Loved every single second of it. Hope it comes back to Eastbourne for those of you who missed it.
