Local child gets walk-on role for touring Broadway production of “Ragtime”
Posted by Peter Ehrhard
Rolla youth Tylin Davidson will perform in a walk-on role in the touring Broadway production of Ragtime at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Feb. 8, in Leach Theatre. Davidson will play the part of Young Coalhouse, the sweet and innocent boy of Sarah and Coalhouse Walker Jr., in the final uplifting moments of the musical. Davidson is the 4-year-old daughter of Tyrone and Lynne Davidson of Rolla. Tyrone is manager of undergraduate studies at Missouri S&T, and Lynne is a student service coordinator in counseling, disability support and student wellness at Missouri S&T.
When asked how she felt about playing the part of a boy, Tylin said she felt confident that she could do it even though she is a girl.
