"Ragtime The Musical" takes its name from the era it is set in... the turn of the 20th century. Interviews and musical selections feature Director Rod A. Lansberry, Jamal Lee Harris, Megan Van De Hey, Wayne Kennedy, Musical Director David Nehls. The story is a rich, intense story with themes still relevant today.
Based on the novel by E. L. Doctorow, this epic musical, set in early-20th-century New York City, shines the spotlight on the intersection of three families—all from completely different backgrounds—during a time in history when social mores, immigration, politics, and industrialization were clashing and undergoing immense and rapid changes. Making its regional premiere of the 2008 revival, this deeply moving and inspirational musical drama is replete with the rich and lyrical music of the time.
