Parade features a Tony-winning book by Alfred Uhry and a Tony-winning score by Jason Robert Brown.

The musical, which is set in 1913, concerns "Leo Frank, a Brooklyn-raised Jewish man living in Georgia, [who] is put on trial for the murder of a young girl who works in his factory," according to press notes. "Already guilty in the eyes of the town, a sensationalist reporter and a janitor's false testimony seal Leo's fate. His only defenders are a governor with a conscience and his Southern wife who finds the strength and love to become his greatest champion."
