Our next production

Parade

by Alfred Uhry & Jason Robert Brown

Directed by Jason Marlett · Music director Randall Burghart

Chronicles the wrongful conviction of Leo Frank for the murder of 13-year-old Mary Phagan, and the heroic efforts by his wife Lucille to save her husband. Set in Georgia between 1913 and 1915, this Tony Award-winning musical features a large cast, spectacular music, and issues all too relevant a century later.
