If there has ever been a massively successful revival of a musical on Broadway, let it be the 2023 staging of Alfred Uhry’s riveting ‘Parade’.
Leaving enduring impressions on critics, regular theatregoers, naysayers, and laypersons alike, ‘Parade’’s enthralling tale of faith, humanity, and devotion in the face of hardship, underlined by Jason Robert Brown’s masterful score, and delivered by a world-renowned cast, received two Tony Awards, six Drama Desk Awards, and a New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best Musical.
Based on a true story, ‘Parade’ tells the gut-wrenching tale of the 1913 trial, imprisonment, and eventual lynching of Leo Frank, falsely accused of murdering and raping a 13-year old factory worker. Rooted in prejudice, corruption, bigotry, injustice, and mob mentality, the tale of Leo Frank serves as social commentary on, and testament of the eerie relevancy of this subject matter, even a century after the true events took place. Whilst the production has a sinister undertone throughout - especially since Leo Frank’s story is familiar, is it also filled with hope and humanity, and at the very heart of it, the power of love to survive great suffering.
‘Parade’ is a true work of art that will catch you off-guard, the music is masterfully composed, arranged, and performed with great prowess and passion, the production is a sensory experience, and the tale is gripping - one of the biggest must-sees in theatres today.
And this summer, hot on the heels of its Broadway revival, the parade is finally marching down to the CIBC Theatre - just around the corner from you! This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - one that should be grabbed with both hands!
