A valentine to small town, U.S.A., Meredith Willson’s The Music Man follows the fast-talking, charismatic traveling salesman Harold Hill (Robert Moorhead) as he cons the people of River City, Iowa into buying musical instruments and uniforms for a marching band he knows will never come to be. The town’s lovely Marian the Librarian (Susan Zelinsky)
just may end up being Hill’s trouble with a capital “T.”
Last seen on Mount Tamalpais is 1993, this Tony award-winning, critically acclaimed Broadway classic is a timeless salute to Americana and small town values. Set in River City, Iowa on the Fourth of July, The Music Man is full of whimsical characters and a musical score rich with the sounds of barbershop quartet, marching bands and songs that have become popular standards such as “Seventy Six Trombones,” “Wells Fargo Wagon,” “Gary, Indiana,” “Goodnight My Someone,” “Ya Got Trouble” and “Till There Was You” which rose to even greater popularity after being recorded by The Beatles. Always a popular favorite, the musical inspired two films - the 1962 version starred Robert Preston as Harold Hill and Shirley Jones as Marian and in 2003 starred Matthew Broderick and Kristin Chenoweth of Wicked fame.
