There’s trouble in River City when a fast-talking salesman gets his heart stolen by the town librarian.Meredith Willson’s six-time Tony Award-winning musical comedy THE MUSIC MAN follows fast-talking traveling salesman Harold Hill as he cons the people of River City, Iowa. The smooth-talker tricks people into buying instruments and uniforms for a boys' band that he vows to organize—despite the fact that he doesn’t know a trombone from a treble clef. His plans to skip town with the cash are foiled when he falls for Marian, the librarian, who transforms him into a respectable citizen by curtain’s fall.
This new production will be helmed by veteran director Matt Lenz (Hairspray, The Sound of Music). Joshua Bergasse (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, NBC’s Smash), Emmy Award winner, Tony Award nominee, and critically acclaimed choreographer, will create all new dances for the citizens of River City.
Featuring songs such as “Seventy-Six Trombones,” “Trouble,” “’Til There Was You,” “Pickalittle,” and “Gary, Indiana,” THE MUSIC MAN is a family-friendly story to be shared with every generation.
