The story

It was the music of something beginning... RAGTIME is a sweeping musical adaption of E.L. Doctorow ’s novel that follows three fictional families in pursuit of the American Dream at the dawn of the 20th Century: Black pianist Coalhouse Walker, Jr. and his beloved Sarah, Jewish immigrant Tateh and his little girl, and a wealthy white family led by matriarch Mother. All grasping for the same dream, if only they can hold on to it. Featuring a lush score by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens , a stirring book by Terrence McNally and original orchestrations by William David Brohn , all of whom won Tony Awards for their work, RAGTIME weaves fictional narratives with real historical figures and events, creating a rich tapestry that blurs the line between personal struggle and national identity, making history feel both intimate and epic. LCT Artistic Director Lear deBessonet (Tony-nominated for her celebrated 2022 revival of Into the Woods ) directs a new production, envisioned for the grand Vivian Beaumont stage, starring Tony nominee Joshua Henry ( Into the Woods , Carousel ), Olivier and Grammy nominee Caissie Levy ( Hair , Frozen ), and Tony winner Brandon Uranowitz ( Leopoldstadt , LCT's Falsettos ).
