TheatreWorks Silicon Valley continues its 51st season with the hit musical "Ragtime". This sweeping and stirring musical masterpiece paints a portrait of America at the dawn of the twentieth century, interweaving the lives of three families--White American, African American, and Jewish immigrant from Latvia--finding their places and pursuing the American Dream in a rapidly changing world. Featuring a Tony Award-winning book by Pulitzer Prize finalist Terrence McNally ("Master Class", "Kiss of the Spider Woman", "The Rink") and a Tony Award-winning score by Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens ("Once on This Island", "Anastasia", "Seussical The Musical"), this musical is based on E. L. Doctorow's best-selling novel. "Ragtime's" original 1998 Broadway production was declared "A colossal hit" by the New York Post and received four Tony Awards. TheatreWorks' 2002 production of "Ragtime", directed by Founding Artistic Director Robert Kelley, received rapturous accolades with The Mercury News calling it "A masterpiece." Kelley will return to direct this highly anticipated new production.
