The Music Man at Toby's Dinner Theatre

The Music Man is family entertainment at its best. Meredith Willson's six-time, Tony Award-winning musical comedy has been entertaining audiences since 1957 and is a family-friendly story to be shared with every generation.

The Music Man follows fast-talking traveling salesman, Harold Hill, as he cons the people of River City, Iowa, into buying instruments and uniforms for a boys' band that he vows to organize – this, despite the fact that he doesn't know a trombone from a treble clef. His plans to skip town with the cash are foiled when he falls for Marian, the librarian, who transforms him into a respectable citizen by curtain's fall. The Music Man features an incredible score including 76 Trombones, The Wells Fargo Wagon, Trouble, Goodnight My Someone and Till There Was You. THE MUSIC MAN is “Musical comedy at its feel good best.” ~ The New York Times
