Ragtime, The Musical

Toby's Dinner Theatre - Columbia
5900 Synmphony Woods Road Columbia

At the dawn of a new century, everything is changing… and anything is possible. Set in the volatile melting pot of turn-of-the-century New York, three distinctly American tales are woven together -- that of a stifled upper-class wife, a determined Jewish immigrant and a daring young Harlem musician -- united by their courage, compassion and belief in the promise of the future. Together they confront history's timeless contradictions of wealth and poverty, freedom and prejudice, hope and despair, and what it means to live in America.

"...Toby's production of Ragtime is a fitting tribute to those seeking the American dream and the man who wrote the novel Ragtime, E. L. Doctorow. I encourage anyone who has a dream to make time to see Ragtime."

"...Giving the nation a new syncopation, Toby's the Dinner Theatre of Columbia proudly presents a masterful production of the treasured Ahrens and Flaherty musical Ragtime. Rolling on the wheels of a dream, the production is Directed by house Artistic Director Toby Orenstein and Co-Artistic Director Lawrence B. Munsey. With Musical Direction by Ross Scott Rawlings, this evocative, soul-searing musical brings forth a hunger for justice and presents to theatergoers all across the Columbia and greater Baltimore and Washington Metropolitan areas a sensationally talented cast with earnest heart and emotional depth. The message of America's progress and how far the nation still has left to go has never been more poignantly articulated in Ahrens and Flaherty's show."
