RAGTIME features a book by Terrence McNally, music by Stephen Flaherty, lyrics by Lynn Ahrens and is based on E.L. Doctorow's best-selling 1975 novel. Tony-nominated director & choreographer Marcia Milgrom Dodge will helm the production. Scenic design is by Kevin Depinet, lighting design by Mike Baldassari and sound design by Craig Cassidy.

Their compelling stories are set to theatre's richest and most glorious Tony Award-winning score.
RAGTIME, E.L. Doctorow's 1975 novel, won the National Book Critics Circle award and sold 4.5 million copies. It became a film in 1981 and a Broadway musical in 1998. The original 1998 production ran on Broadway for 834 performances. A 2009 Broadway revival received rapturous reviews and is now on tour throughout North America.
