One of America's most cherished musicals, The Music Man follows con man Harold Hill as he tries to dupe the citizens of River City, Iowa with false promises of a boys' band. But when the town's beautiful yet hopelessly stubborn librarian catches Harold's eye, this town suddenly becomes harder to skip. A beloved story of morality, deceit, humor and romance, The Music Man has been a parading across the stage for over 50 years. For one night only Transport Group brings together dozens of today's top Broadway talents to sing this triumph of a score.

The Music Man is the hit 1957 musical with book, music, and lyrics by Meredith Willson, based on a story by Willson and Franklin Lacey. Opening in on December 19th at The Majestic Theatre, the show became a hit, winning five Tony Awards including Best Musical, and running for 1,375 performances. The original production starred Barbara Cookand Robert Preston. Preston reprised his role in the 1962 film version alongside movie-musical star Shirley Jones. Since it's original production, The Music Man has remained one of the most popular titles regionally and has seen two Broadway revivals in 1980 & 2000, and a TV adaptation.
