Ragtime The Musical at Weathervane Playhouse, Akron

Musical - June 15 through July 9, 2023
Music by Stephen Flaherty
Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
Book by Terrence McNally

At the dawn of a new century, everything is changing...and anything is possible. Called "a triumph for the stage," and "the best musical in twenty years," this winner of multiple Tony Awards
confronts history's timeless contradictions of wealth and poverty, freedom and prejudice, hope and despair, and what it means to truly live in America.
