Ragtime the Musical  

Book by Terrence McNally

Music and Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty

Director Dr. Joy Powell

Musical Director Christine Jarquio Nichols

Set in the ever-changing landscape of turn-of-the-century New York, three distinctly American tales are woven together – that of a stifled upper-class wife, a determined Jewish immigrant and a daring young Harlem musician – united by their courage, compassion and belief in the promise of the future. Together, they confront history's timeless contradictions of wealth and poverty, freedom and prejudice, hope and despair, and what it means to live in America.
