Parade at Ahmanson Theatre

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.

After an extensive, yet distorted trial heavily influenced by injustices, discrimination, media sensation, dishonesty, and misinformation, Leo Frank is imprisoned, and eventually lynched. This unfortunate true event shaped the establishment of Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish civil rights organization, and on the opposite end, the Ku Klux Klan.

Even though the tale is heartbreaking and sometimes shocking, ‘Parade’ is art at its very best, exploring complex human emotions while being filled with hope, and is guaranteed to leave you contemplating it long after the curtain falls.

Not only does it serve as a stark reminder that history often repeats itself, but also reminds of the power of art to challenge, illuminate, and reflect. It’s been over a century since Leo Frank’s trial, and still audience members are moved and changed by the poignancy of this tale.
