    Ep. 1 The Music of Something Beginning: 'Ragtime' in the era of George Floyd

    "An era exploding, a century spinning in riches and rags, and in rhythm and rhyme..." Winner of 4 Tony Award for its original Broadway production, Ragtime is an all-American musical that tells the stories of Coalhouse Walker Jr., an African-American musician from Harlem, Tateh, a poor immigrant from Latvia, and Mother, a white matriarch of an upperclass family from New Rochelle, NY.  It is the turn of the century, and every American is in pursuit of their idea of the American Dream and do whatever it takes to get it. With heartache, pain, and loss, Ragtime exposes the racial prejudice, economic injustice, and systemic sexism that weigh heavily on its characters and continually prevent them from obtaining their ideas of "sexism." Join co-hosts Michael Cuschieri and Alegra Batara as they dissect this significant Broadway and its relevancy in this new wave of the Black Lives Matter movement. There is also fun facts, stories, and more found in this first episode of our new podcast, The Show Goes On.
