Fountain Hills Theater announces the opening of the musical Ragtime, a sweeping musical portrait of early 20th century America. Set in the volatile melting pot of turn-of-the-century New York, three distinctly American tales are woven together – that of an upper-class white mother, a determined Jewish immigrant, and a daring black musician – united by their courage and belief in the promise of the future. They confront history’s contradictions of wealth and poverty, freedom and prejudice, hope and despair, and what it means to live in America.Winner of 4 Tony Awards!
Ragtime is directed by Peter J. Hill, musically directed by Kathleen Berger and choreographed by Noel Irick. “Ragtime” is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI). All authorized performance materials are also supplied by MTI. www.mtishows.com
