Evening Sessions 7:45pm **RAGTIME THE MUSICAL** Book by Terrence McNally Music by Stephen Flaherty Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens Based on the novel RAGTIME by E.L. Doctorow In a striking, bold and ambitious new production, triple Olivier Award-winner Timothy Sheader (Best Musical Revival 2010, 2011, 2012) adds a contemporary twist to this powerful musical. As the strains of ragtime music are heard on an old record player, a father tells his son a story; a story of hope set at the turn of the 20th century; of a Harlem pianist, a white middle-class family and a Latvian immigrant, whose dreams of a better world shape their destiny. ‘Visually imposing’ (Evening Standard) and ‘staged with brilliance’ (Guardian), the timeless contradictions of wealth and poverty, freedom and prejudice, hope and despair, make this a theatre experience not to be missed. Matinee: 2.15pm (Gates 1.15pm) Evening: 7.45pm (Gates 6.15pm) The approximate running time for this production is 2 hours 50 minutes including an interval.
