It is the turn of the 20th Century in New York. An era is exploding. A century is spinning. And the people are moving in rhythm and rhyme to the music of Ragtime. Based on the novel by E.L Doctorow, Ragtime weaves together the story of three groups in America, represented by Coalhouse Walker Jr, a Harlem musician; Mother and her white, middle class family in New Rochelle; and Tateh, a Jewish immigrant who has come to America with his daughter seeking a new life. Their fictional lives become dramatically intertwined with one another as well as with historical figures including Harry Houdini, Booker T. Washington, JP Morgan and Henry Ford.

The full cast are: Simon Anthony, Bernadette Bangura, Anthony Cable, Earl Carpenter, Anita Louise Combe, Valerie Cutko, Christopher Dickins, Nolan Frederick, Tom Giles, Joanna Hickman, Lemuel Knights, Martin Ludenbach, James Mack, Ako Mitchell, Sufia Manya, Seyi Omooba, Jess Ryan, Kate Robson-Stuart, Jennifer Saayeng, Jonathan Stewart and Gary Tushaw, with child actors Alana Hinge, Samuel Peterson, Ethan Quinn and Riya Vyas.

The creative team includes orchestrator and musical supervisor Mark Aspinall, choreographer Ewan Jones, set designers Tom Rogers and Toots Butcher, lighting designer Howard Hudson, Sound Designer AnDrew Johnson, costume designer Jonathan Lipman, musical director Jordan Li-Smith and casting director Danielle Tarento.
