Moonlight Stage Productions' THE MUSIC MAN Opens 7/15

Moonlight Stage Productions presents "The Music Man," a classic that is as American as apple pie. The show follows fast-talking traveling salesman Harold Hill as he cons the people of River City, Iowa into buying instruments and uniforms for a boy's band that he will lead. The catch is he doesn't know the difference between a trombone and a treble clef! Before he can skip town, the town librarian steals Hill's heart and transforms him into a respectable citizen. "The Music Man" is family entertainment at its very best. "The Music Man" runs July 15 through August 1, 2015 under the stars at Moonlight Amphitheatre in Vista, Calif. All performances begin at 8 p.m. Single tickets are priced $24 to $52. To purchase tickets or for more information, call(760) 724-2110 or visit http://www.moonlightstage.com.
