Ragtime April 7, 2007

'Ragtime' is an epic, award-winning musical based on E.L. Doctorow's distinguished novel. It brings to life a movingly nostalgic portrayal of life in turn of the century America. It intertwines three distinct stories of a wealthy family, a poor Jewish immigrant and a young black pianist that poignantly illustrate history's timeless contradictions of wealth and poverty, freedom and prejudice, hope and despair and love and hate.
