The Music Man Marches In

Set in the River City, Iowa of 1912, The Music Man tells the story of Harold Hill (Kyle Parsons), a traveling con man who tries to convince the stubborn locals to start a band by purchasing uniforms and instruments from him. His grift becomes complicated after he develops feelings for the town’s librarian, Marian (Lauren Carlson), who also happens to be the only member of the community not buying what Hill is selling.

The performances on Friday, April 12, and Saturday, April 13, are at 7:30 p.m. The performance on Sunday, April 14, will be held at 2:30 p.m. All of these performances are open to the public. Adult tickets cost $25. Tickets for seniors and children between the ages of 8 and 18 are $10. Children under 8 are free, but each child must have a ticket to attend the show.
