MAKE THEM HEAR YOU! RAGTIME!

JOSHUA HENRY literally stopped the show several times today with standing ovations as Coalhouse Walker Jr in Encores production of RAGTIME. It was one of the best productions I have since since seeing it with Audra McDonald and Brian Stokes Mitchell. HENRY STOLE THE SHOW! He killed it in Wheels of A Dream, and Make Them Hear You. He has a gorgeous, deep wonderful voice and he was every bit as special as Brian Stokes Mitchell which is tough to do.

I loved everything about this show but he was my favorite part and performance.

If you can see one thing this season see RAGTIME at City Center. Playing through November 10th. It was the best musical I have seen in decades.

Hopefully this will move to Broadway as it is such an important show and very timely.  It was a magical afternoon at City Center!
