Parade at Kennedy Center Opera House

Parade The Musical

The true story of Leo Frank is familiar to most: A young Jewish American man arrested for a murder he did not commit.

As a result of a flawed trial fuelled by division, intolerance, mob mentality, and misinformation, Leo Frank is detained, and eventually lynched. This regrettable true event resulted in a posthumous pardon that was granted in 1986, and the case reopened as recently as 2019.

Even though Leo Frank’s tale is eerily timeless, horrific, and gut-punching, ‘Parade’ is a true work of art, delving into complex human emotions while being filled with hope, and is guaranteed to leave you pondering on it long after the curtain falls.

Not only does it shed light on the ills of society, but also reminds of the power of art to confront, elucidate, and reflect. No audience member has ever left ‘Parade’ unchanged and unmoved, goes to bed without thinking about the relevance of this tale, and unimpressed with what they have just witnessed.
