Ragtime the Musical August 5, 2011

SLATE (Southland Area Theatre Ensemble) presents 'Ragtime,' the Tony award winning muscial based on the novel by E.L. Doctorow. Set in the volatile melting pot of New York at the beginning of the 20th century, 'Ragtime' weaves together three distinctly American tales- 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 promises of the future.
