By Theodore Dreiser, dramatised in 15 parts by Steve Chambers.
The gripping tale of a young woman's rise to fame and fortune at the turn of the 20th century.
Carrie is delighted to be asked to take part in some amateur dramatics and rehearses eagerly, but Hurstwood is tortured by jealousy. The final straw comes on the night of Carrie's performance. She is dazzling, and Hurstwood, no longer able to bear to seeing her with his worthless rival, starts to plot.
