<DIV></DIV>>A powerful musical drama, Parade is based on the true story of Leo Frank, 
<DIV></DIV>>a Brooklyn-born Jew accused of the 1913 murder of 13-year-old Mary Phagan 
<DIV></DIV>>in Georgia. Against a backdrop of bigotry and mob hysteris, the story 
<DIV></DIV>>becomes a celebration of the newfound love of the accused and his wife, 
<DIV></DIV>>Lucille, who never quit fighting to clear his name. 
<DIV></DIV>>"This is a very contemporary work, even though it takes place in 
<DIV></DIV>>1913-1914", said Director Jecmen. PARADE's subject matter offers a moral 
<DIV></DIV>>lesson about the dangers of prejudice and ignorance. "This show speaks to 
<DIV></DIV>>everyone."
