Sabrina Carpenter surprised fans with a star-studded and theatrical headline set at Coachella bringing Susan Sarandon onstage in a move that quickly sparked buzz.

The 26-year-old pop star made her headlining debut on April 10 transforming the stage into a cinematic experience she dubbed “Sabrinawood” complete with elaborate skits and surprise celebrity appearances.

One of the night’s biggest moments came when Sarandon appeared as an older version of Carpenter delivering an extended monologue that lasted several minutes and drew loud reactions from the crowd.

The appearance was particularly notable as Sarandon has recently faced backlash in Hollywood over her political views making her return to a major public stage even more talked about.

Carpenter’s set also featured appearances from her former Girl Meets World co-star Corey Fogelmanis who played a waiter in one of the show’s staged segments.

Meanwhile Will Ferrell added a comedic twist by appearing as an electrician dragging a cable across the stage.

Samuel L. Jackson took on a narrator role during one of the performance segments.

Carpenter is set to return to Coachella for another performance next week continuing what has already become one of the festival’s most talked-about sets this year.
