Parade is an epic American musical, the true story of Leo Frank’s trial and lynching in Atlanta, 1913. Ostracized for his faith and Northern heritage, Jewish factory manager Leo Frank is accused of murdering a teenaged factory girl the day of the annual Confederate Memorial Day parade. The incident gave birth to the premier Jewish civil rights organization, The Anti-Defamation League and, on the other end of the spectrum, the rebirth of the KKK. With a music score that combines pop-rock, folk, R/B and gospel, it is a riveting murder mystery, a gripping courtroom drama, a moving love story, a searing social commentary and, in the words of its Pulitzer Prize-winning author, “It is an entertainment.”
“About two-thirds of the way through the handsome first act of Parade, something happens that makes us stop merely admiring the show and start connecting deeply to it.” Newsweek
“It's rare, but sometimes in musical theater, everything comes together -- story, music, performances -- to produce moments that can't be duplicated in any other medium. Such an experience occurs in Parade.'' Associated Press
This production is recommended for ages 16 and up. All attendees, regardless of age must have a ticket to enter the theater.
