Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens
Book by Terrence McNally

Music Direction by Daniel Thomas
1998 Tony Award Winner ("Best Book Of A Musical," "Best Original Score")
"Usually we can only dream of a musical that brings as much realism and poetry to the picture as Ragtime (****out of four)." - USA Today
This brilliant musical of early 20th Century America tells the story of an African American couple, a Jewish immigrant and his daughter, and a wealthy suburban family. Based on the 1975 novel by E.L. Doctorow, this tale portrays their struggle with discrimination, inequality and three distinct pursuits of the American Dream. RAGTIME continues Moon's annual Musical in Concert series, featuring a 25-piece onstage orchestra and 40 of the Bay Area's best actor/singers.
