I started a thread asking people's opinions on Jersey Boys, thanks for the reply's, but I have one more I want to ask opinions on...Ragtime. What are your thoughts on this show? I haven't seen it yet, but I'm thinking of getting the cd. Thanks in advance.

I loved this show. The songs are amazing. I performed Sarah's song back in college. It is such a strong story and I think it is excellent. But it is certainly not a happy, appropriate for children type of story. Think of it in terms of Miss Saigon-not happy, but very poingant (sp?) and fabulous music. I highly recommend the soundtrack. You MUST get the original broadway version with Audra McDonald. Its the best!
 
I saw the original cast in Toronto about 7 or 8 years ago. It was phenominal. The story was tragic, wonderful, painful. The music was excellent. I listen to the cd frequently- yes Audra McDonald and Brian Stokes-Mitchell were incredible.
 
I saw it several years ago and remember that I loved it at the time. I don't have the soundtrack so I don't remember it well but I know that I really liked it at the time.
