Winner of Tony Awards in 1995, Ragtime is one of those shows that established itself as a classic from the moment it arrived. It has the power and appeal to be appreciated for generations to come. The show takes place in America in the early 1900s. This was a tumultuous time for Americans, with the rise of labor unions, women’s rights, children's labor laws, blacks fighting for equality, the highest immigration rate ever seen, and the rise of millionaires who use their power to control business and politics. See how Booker T. Washington, Henry Ford, J.P. Morgan, Harry Houdini, and Emma Goldman help shape 20th Century America.
