Casting Goals: Ragtime

This took me MONTHS!!!! I had literally scheduled this post and then decided I was going to post it early, but upon re-looking at the cast list I said “You can do better Paul” so I reverted it to a draft and removed about 10 people which then led to shuffling some people around and then casting new people. Throughout the entire process the only definite people that were in this entire process where Stephanie J. Block, Terrence Mann, Michael Luwoye, Brittney Johnson and Katrina Lenk. Everybody else was changing constantly!!
