Tickets Now On Sale for PARADE at Omaha Playhouse
By: Julie Musbach Jan. 09, 2018
Tickets for Omaha Community Playhouse's upcoming production of Parade are now on sale through the OCP box office. The production will run February 9 through March 11 in OCP's Howard Drew Theatre.
Parade tells the true story of a Jewish man wrongfully accused of murdering a young girl in a small Southern town and the resulting trial and aftermath of the trial. The events surrounding the investigation and the trial led to the birth of the Jewish civil rights organization, the Anti-Defamation League.
Parade is the Tony Award-winning musical based around the trial of Leo Frank, a Jewish man wrongfully accused of murder in Marietta, Georgia in 1913. Religious intolerance, political injustice and racial tensions are already prevalent in this small Southern town, and when reporters begin to sensationalize the case, the likelihood of a fair trial is put in jeopardy. With a book by Alfred Uhry (Driving Miss Daisy) and music by Jason Robert Brown (The Last Five Years, The Bridges Of Madison County), this true story reveals the beauty of the human condition, even when faced with tragedy.
Disclaimer: Contains language and situations related to racial tension and mob violence.
Parade features soaring music written by Jason Robert Brown, which garnered the 1999 Tony Award for Best Original Score and the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Music in the same year.
