This weekend, March 28-30, the Liberty Union Musical Theater will present Meredith Wilson’s The Music Man. Check out photos from the production.
"The Music Man" tells the story of Harold Hill, a charismatic con man who arrives in River City, Iowa, in 1912. Posing as a traveling salesman and bandleader, Hill's plan is to sell band instruments and uniforms to the townspeople, promising to form a boys' band, and then leave town with the money.
Hill's scheme involves convincing the residents that their town is threatened by the presence of a new pool table, and that the band will provide a wholesome alternative for their children. While most of the townspeople are easily charmed, Marian Paroo, the town librarian, is skeptical of Hill's claims.
As Hill spends time in River City, he unexpectedly begins to fall for Marian, and starts to care about the townspeople. His efforts to con them are complicated by his growing affection, and he finds himself facing a moral dilemma. In the end, Hill is exposed, but the townspeople, having benefited from his presence, ultimately forgive him.
