Based on Meredith Willson's six-time-Tony-Award-winning musical comedy, The Music Man Jr. features some of musical theatre’s most iconic songs, including “76 Trombones”, “Wells Fargo Wagon” and “Til There Was You”. A show filled with wit and warmth, The Music Man Jr. is family entertainment at its best – a bold, brassy production that will have the whole town atwitter!
Master showman Harold Hill (Simon Hershberger) is in town and he’s got “seventy-six trombones” in tow. Can uptight Marian, the town librarian (Ainsley Moyer), resist his powerful allure?
The story follows this fast-talking traveling salesman, as he cons the people of River City, Iowa (Mrs. Paroo: Haley Harper, Winthrop Paroo: Drew Antrobus, Mayor Shinn: Ivan Dean, Eulalie Mackecknie Shinn: Kathrine Kardos, Zaneeta Shin: Felicia Cappiello, and more), into buying instruments and uniforms for a boys' band he vows to organize. The catch? He doesn't know a trombone from a treble clef.
