Michael Boatman, Michael Therriault and the cast of Mark Saltzman's The Tin Pan Alley Rag met the press. The company is currently in rehearsals for its upcoming Off-Broadway debut.
Stafford Arima directs the musical play set to play The Roundabout Theatre Company's Laura Pels Theatre. The cast also features Randy Aaron, Derrick Cobey, Jenny Fellner, Rosena M. Hill, James Judy, Mark Ledbetter, Michael McCormick, Erick Pinnick, Tia Speros and Idara Victor.
"The Tin Pan Alley Rag tells the story of an imagined meeting of two of America's greatest musicians, composer Scott Joplin (Boatman) and songwriter Irving Berlin (Therriault)," according to show notes. "Both men changed the landscape of music forever with their contributions to the first American musical genre, ragtime. Beneath Joplin and Berlin's toe-tapping, syncopated rhythms lay fascinating stories of fame, love and loss."
Here is a first look at the cast:
