New York City
At the dawn of a new century, everything is changing . . . and anything is possible. The stories of an upper-class wife, a determined Jewish immigrant and a daring young Harlem musician unfold. Ragtime is set in turn-of-the-century New York, where all three characters are united by their desire and belief in a brighter tomorrow. Their compelling stories are set to the theatre’s richest and most glorious score by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens. Winning Tony Awards for Best Book and Best Musical Score, this 13-time Tony Award nominated musical is a timeless celebration of life . . . what it could and should be!
