“Usually we can only dream of a musical that brings as much realism and poetry to the picture as Ragtime.” – USA Today

This brilliant musical of early 20th Century America tells the story of an African American couple, a Jewish immigrant and his daughter, and a wealthy suburban family. Based on the 1975 novel by E.L. Doctorow, this tale portrays their struggle with discrimination, inequality and three distinct pursuits of the American Dream. RAGTIME continues Moon’s annual Musical in Concert series, featuring a 25-piece onstage orchestra and 40 of the Bay Area’s best actor/singers. Not part of the main stage season.

Discussion Sundays

Get all your burning questions answered about the show you’ve just seen during our fun and informative post-performance discussions with the audience, cast, and crew. Hosted by Executive Directors Daren A.C. Carollo and Daniel Thomas, who will share the history of the original production as well as our current incarnation! Learn more about the composers, lyricists, and book writers, as well as your favorite Moonie cast members. Discussion Sundays happen on the first and second Sunday of each show in our regular season offerings.

Family & Student Matinees

The best deal in town for kids, parents, and students of all ages. Young people under 18 and college students with a valid student ID can see the show for just $10! Younger students receive a family activity guide, get to participate in an intermission contest (with prizes!), and can join in on a post-show discussion and visit with the actors that includes autographs and pictures. This is a great way to introduce the next generation to the heritage of American musical theatre. This is also a great idea for a kid’s birthday party. Please contact Education Director Anne Norland for further details or if you have a large group wishing to attend.

42nd Street Moon created the Family Matinee to make musical theatre affordable and accessible for young people along with their parents and to provide families the opportunity to experience classic Broadway. Relevant, fun activities and fascinating discussion guides enable families to rediscover how theatre has served an important function in our nation’s cultural landscape and been a way for families to come together. We have expanded the matinee to be a Family and Student Matinee, so that college-aged students can also take advantage of the generous discount.
