Zz PNTC - 2016 - Ragtime
March 25 - April 10
Co-presented with Lakewood Cultural Center, this Tony Award winner for Best Score, Book and Orchestrations, paints a sweeping musical portrait of early 20th century America. At the dawn of a new era, everything is changing and anything is possible. Set in the melting pot of New York City, Ragtime weaves together the tale of three families struggling to pursue the American dream. The score, as diverse as the stories themselves, moves from the rhythms of Harlem to the klezmer of the Lower East Side, incorporating bold brass band marches and delicate waltzes in-between. A timeless and powerful portrait of America, Ragtime has been inspiring audiences all over the world for more than 25 years.
