Carousel Productions was a South African charitable fund-raising organisation and theatrical production company.

History

The company was formed after the successful production of Carousel, directed by Jennifer Craig, in 1967. The aim was to produce musical plays and other entertainments and to donate the profits to various research funds and charitable organisations.
