Derrick Cobey (The Scottsboro Boys) currently appears in the Arden Theatre's new production of Jason Robert Brown's Tony Award-winning musical Parade. He shares some snapshots from backstage at the popular Philly venue.

Based on a true story, Parade is set in 1913 Atlanta, Georgia as Leo Frank, a Jewish factory manager accused of killing a young girl, faces a whole town turned against him.
