Book, Music and Lyrics by Meredith Willson
Based on a story by Franklin Lacey and Meredith Willson
Professor Harold Hill makes his living conning residents of small towns by convincing them he’s going to start a boy’s band and then leaving with their money long before the uniforms and instruments arrive. Taking an unexpected detour, he gets off the train in River City, Iowa and turns the entire town upside down. At first, the residents appear cold and suspicious, however, he wins them over with the exception of one – Marian the local librarian and piano teacher. She’s convinced that he is not what or who he appears to be. In the meantime, Professor Hill has fallen in love with Marian and sets his sites on wooing her and despite her best intentions not to, she falls in love with the slick, fast talking con artist.
The Music Man is a classic musical that everyone will enjoy. The music will stay with you long after the lights come up!
