And we’ve got your first look at two musical numbers from tomorrow night’s big premiere!

Worth noting? The episode is an instant favorite for me, the music works so well with the themes of the show, and there are, as always, some surprising twists in the episode – who else is excited for “Carrie: The Musical” to hit RIVERDALE?

Check out the cast gearing up for their big debut in a performance of “In” from the show:

And here’s a little look behind the scenes at the cast performing “A Night We’ll Never Forget”:

Riverdale High presents Carrie: The Musical, featuring an all-star group of the school’s most talented performers in a special musical episode, which airs Wednesday, April 18, at 8/7c on The CW. The cast comes out in full force with their debut song, “In,” performed by Archie, Betty Veronica, Cheryl, Kevin, Ethel, and more, as they arrive on stage to begin rehearsals. Though Cheryl Blossom proves she’s worthy of the starring role of Carrie White, things take an ominous turn when she finds herself under threat via an anonymous letter.

As the musical’s documentarian, Jughead tries to solve the mystery behind the letter, but Cheryl faces another setback during a showdown with her mother. Meanwhile, tensions between Betty and Veronica continue to escalate just as Alice announces she is joining the musical to spend more time with Betty. It soon becomes clear that their roles are eerily intersecting with their personal lives.

With a nod to Sissy Spacek in true ’70s Style, the cast again comes together for “A Night We’ll Never Forget,” giving the audience a behind-the-scenes look at everyone excitedly preparing for the big production.

The soundtrack to the special Riverdale episode: ‘Carrie The Musical’ will be available to stream and for purchase after the episode airs.

Based on Lawrence D. Cohen’s on-screen adaptation of Stephen King’s novel, Carrie: The Musical features lyrics by Dean Pitchford and music by Michael Gore. Carrie: The Musical was first produced in 1988 by the Royal Shakespeare Company before ultimately making its way to Broadway. It was then revived in 2012 by New York’s MCC Theater. Major productions have recently been seen at the Southwark Playhouse in London and the Los Angeles Theatre in Los Angeles, California. In addition to Cheryl Blossom’s role as Carrie, the Riverdale High production includes Archie Andrews as Tommy Ross, Betty Cooper as Sue Snell, Veronica Lodge as Chris Hargensen, Chuck Clayton as Billy Nolan, Alice Cooper as Margaret White, Josie McCoy as Miss Gardner, Toni Topaz as Norma and Ethel Muggs as Helen. The show is directed by Kevin Keller.
