The Wallace Buice Theatre Company presents PARADE this September at the Lyric Studio in Marietta, GA.
Alfred Uhry and Jason Robert Brown's masterpiece returns home to Marietta, where the story began 105 years ago.
In 1913, Leo Frank, a Brooklyn-raised Jew living in Georgia, is put on trial for the murder of thirteen-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory worker under his employ. Already guilty in the eyes of everyone around him, a sensationalist publisher and a janitor's (false?) testimony seal Leo's fate.
His only defenders are a governor with a conscience and, eventually, his assimilated Southern wife who finds the strength and love to become his greatest champion. Amid religious intolerance, political injustice and racial tension, this stirring Tony Award-winning show explores the endurance of love and hope against all the odds. #findyourtruth
