Ragtime is adapted from E. L. Doctorow’s novel, tracing the lives of three families—Black pianist Coalhouse Walker, Jr. (Joshua Henry) and Sarah (Nichelle Lewis), Jewish immigrant Tateh (Brandon Uranowitz) and his daughter, and a wealthy white family led by Mother (Caissie Levy)—whose stories intersect at the dawn of the 20th century.
The production is presented by Lincoln Center Theater in association with Tom Kirdahy, Kevin Ryan, Robert Greenblatt, and Lamar Richardson, with additional producing partners. The Gala Production of Ragtime was first presented in 2024 by New York City Center.
