Ragtime

David and Dorothea Garfield Theatre
4126 Executive Dr. La Jolla

Famous historical characters and a rich score propel Ragtime through a spectacular re-creation of turn-of-the-century New York. Based on E.L. Doctorow's acclaimed novel, this 13-time Tony-nominated musical paints a nostalgic and powerful portrait of three diverse families whose fates become unexpectedly intertwined. With music and lyrics by the Tony Award-winning team of Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, the show boasts a Tony Award-winning book by Terrence McNally and such iconic songs as "Getting Ready Rag," "Wheels of a Dream," "Till We Reach That Day" and "Make Them Hear You." Now the San Diego Center for Jewish Culture's talented youth company brings the show to life at the David & Dorothea Garfield Theatre with accompaniment from a live 24-piece symphonic orchestra.
