Thirty years ago I saw my very first professional musical. I was just a kid, and I was in awe of the performance at Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre. That very same show, The King and I, is on stage now and the magic is still there. It may be tinged with nostalgia for me, but the talent on stage is undeniable.

This spring, Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre is inviting audiences to experience The King and I on its stage for the first time in over 20 years. Learn how to purchase tickets.
