Tacoma Musical Playhouse has announced the return of Ragtime, The Musical to TMP for 16 performances this summer.
Last seen on the TMP Mainstage in spring of 2006, Ragtime is a beautiful story with a gloriously diverse score. It intertwines the lives of three distinct families of the early 20th Century and poignantly illustrates history's timeless contradictions of wealth and poverty, freedom and prejudice, hope and despair, and love and hate. As clearly indicated in the tally of TMP's annual patron survey, Ragtime is surely an all-time community favorite.
This 2013 production will feature many of the 2006 cast returning to share their portrayals, including Stacie Calkins as 'Sarah' and Lark Orvick-Moore as 'Emma Goodman,' and include regional favorites new to the TMP production like Eric Clausell as 'Coalhouse' and Micheal O'Hara as 'Tateh'. In one of the largest casts ever assembled at TMP, Director Jon Rake promises a production filled with beautiful music, top-notch acting and creative choreography.
Ragtime, The Musical runs for only 16 performances from July 12-August 4, 2013. Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm, and Saturdays and Sundays at 2pm.
ALL PERFORMANCES will take place at the CURTIS HIGH SCHOOL Theater, 8425 40th Street W in University Place, while TMP is undergoing a stage remodel this summer. Tickets are available online at www.tmp.org, or through the TMP Box Office at 253-565-6867 or in person 7116 6th Avenue in Tacoma. Advanced purchase is strongly recommended as there will be limited Box Office capabilities at Curtis High School the day of the show. All seating is reserved.
Ticket prices are $29 for adults; $27 for seniors, students and military; $20 for children 12 and under; and a $20 Student Rush price is available for all opening weekend performances when purchased in advance or at the door. Group Rates are available for groups of 10 or more.
Patrons are encouraged to attend TMP's FREE preview presentation, Behind the Curtain! at TMP on Sunday, July 7th at 7 pm AT CURTIS HIGH SCHOOL to learn more about this production and its history, see selected performances from the cast, and to familiarize yourself with the Curtis High School facility.
