Review: PARADE at Orpheum Theatre
by Steve Murray - May 23, 2025
A true story of unspeakable injustice is beautifully realized in Parade, deservedly winner of the 2023 Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical. Like its dramatic courtroom cousins Inherit then Wind and To Kill a Mockingbird, Parade brings humanity to a tragedy, faces to the pictures projected on a huge backdrop screen, and a heightened emotional realism through Jason Robert Browns’ Tony winning score. Gorgeously stage by Michael Arden, its huge cast is always in motion, amazingly lit to create an atmosphere of hot and dusty 1913 Georgia.

For 105 people per night over the course of eight performances, Rose-Mock brought to life Alfred Uhry’s book and Jason Robert Brown’s lyrics about Leo Frank, a Jewish factory superintendent who was tried, convicted and lynched after being accused of murdering Mary Phagan, a 13-year-old who had worked at the factory.
