Broadway's 'Ragtime' Revival Extends Yet Again Thanks to Sell-Out Crowds & Popular Demand
The Broadway revival of Ragtime was originally supposed to have a 14-week limited engagement, but it keeps on extending its run thanks to popular demand.
Ragtime weaves fictional narratives with real historical figures and events, creating a rich tapestry that blurs the line between personal struggle and national identity, making history feel both intimate and epic.
The classic musical is the adaptation of E. L. Doctorow’s classic novel that follows three fictional families in pursuit of the American Dream at the dawn of the 20th Century: Black pianist Coalhouse Walker, Jr. (Joshua Henry) and his beloved Sarah (Nichelle Lewis), Jewish immigrant Tateh (Brandon Uranowitz) and his little girl, and a wealthy white family led by matriarch Mother (Caissie Levy). All grasping for the same dream, if only they can hold onto it.
The acclaimed revival production, which was originally produced at New York City Center in 2024, was scheduled to close in January 2026. The run was later extended through June 2026. Now, another extension has been announced with tickets on sale through August 2, 2026.
The musical is considered a frontrunner in many categories at the 2026 Tony Awards. Get tickets now!
