With RAGTIME, Cripple Creek continued its bold experiment of offering high quality professional productions to the general public completely free of charge. Offering RAGTIME at no cost to the general public allowed anyone, regardless of income, to take in a show that explores the currents of inequality running through America’s veins. Ingrained racism, distrust of foreigners, the struggle of labor vs capital, the ability of music to bridge cultural boundaries, and the desperate actions of abused individuals who see no future for themselves in our country all come to life through vivid storytelling. 

With The Cradle Will Rock, Cripple Creek began its bold experiment of offering high quality professional productions to the general public completely free of charge. The Cradle Will Rock follows these intriguing characters as they relive their stories, leading to a massive union strike that threatens Mr. Mister and his empire. With musical direction by avant garde classical composer, Tucker Fuller, CCTC’s production of The Cradle Will Rock heralded the outstanding artistry in this city and explore the play’s relevance for New Orleans citizens today.
