Get ready to be transported through the life and music of one of the most influential songwriters of the 20th century. Beautiful: The Carole King Musical is set to take the stage at the Riverside Center for the Performing Arts starting Wednesday, September 18, 2024, for a seven-week run.
The Tony Award-winning musical, based on a book by Douglas McGrath, tells the inspiring story of Carole King, born Carole Klein, a young Brooklyn songwriter who would go on to shape the soundtrack of a generation. Audiences will witness King’s journey from her early years penning chart-toppers for stars like The Shirelles and The Drifters to her own groundbreaking solo success with her album “Tapestry.”
The musical features a score packed with King’s greatest hits, including “I Feel the Earth Move,” “One Fine Day,” “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” “You’ve Got a Friend,” and, of course, the title song, “Beautiful.” With music and lyrics by Gerry Goffin, Carole King, Barry Mann, and Cynthia Weil, as well as additional arrangements by Steve Sidwell and Jason Howland, the show is a treat for fans of classic pop and rock.

After almost 40 years in practice, Manassas-based Internist John Cary, MD’s change to concierge medicine enabled focused attention for each individual, and the launch of his innovative diet program for those with type 2 diabetes. “The goal is to promote enough weight loss to reach an acceptable A1C of 6% with no medication,” he explains. “Achieving that can take several months of very close follow up. As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”
Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
