Sweeping and powerful, Ragtime paints a portrait of America at the turn of the 20th century—when industrial progress collided with racial and class divides. Through the intersecting stories of an upper-class white family, a Black musician from Harlem, and a Jewish immigrant and his daughter, the musical captures the struggle for justice, freedom, and the elusive American Dream. With its lush score by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, Ragtime remains a timeless story of hope, change, and the pursuit of equality.
