Ben Platt in Parade on Broadway

Ben Platt in Parade on Broadway is happening on Thursday,July 20,2023 at 07:00PM EDT at Bernard B Jacobs Theatre with tickets starting at $56.

Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Award winner Ben Platt ("Dear Evan Hansen") returns to the New York stage as Leo Frank alongside Micaela Diamond ("The Cher Show") as Lucille Frank in this starry Gala presentation of the Jason Robert Brown ("Songs for a New World") and Alfred Uhry ("Driving Miss Daisy") musical. Inspired by historical events, Parade follows the Franks—a Jewish couple living in Marietta, Georgia—as they’re pulled apart and drawn together by Leo’s 1913 murder trial, conviction, appeal, and eventual lynching. Brutal legal drama contrasts with haunting pastoral lyricism as an unlikely love story unfolds—a unique blend of tones that won both Brown and Uhry Tony Awards (for Original Score and Book respectively).
