The Pre-Professional Program of Act Two @ Levine
is proud to present PARADE
In 1913, Leo Frank, a Brooklyn-raised Jew living in Georgia, is put on trial for the murder of 13-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory worker under his employ. Already guilty in the eyes of everyone around him, a sensationalist publisher and a janitor’s false testimony seal Leo’s fate. His only defenders are a governor with a conscience and, eventually, his assimilated Southern wife who finds the strength and love to become his greatest champion.
The tragic, true story of the trial and lynching of a man wrongly accused of murder,Parade offers a moral lesson about the dangers of prejudice and ignorance that should not be forgotten. Parade received Tony Awards for Best Book and Best Score in 2000.
