Cain Park presents THE MUSIC MAN IN CONCERT with Liza Grossman and the Contemporary Youth Orchestra August 5 & 6 Evans Amphitheater SUPPORTED BY WCLV Book, Music & Lyrics by Meredith Willson Story by Meredith Willson and Franklin Lacey Directed by Joanna May Hunkins Music Directed by Jordan Cooper There's trouble in River City when a fast-talking salesman gets his heart stolen by the town librarian! 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 he vows to organize - this despite the fact 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 the end of the night. By turns wicked, funny, warm, romantic and touching, 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. Cain Park's production features Liza Grossman and the Contemporary Youth Orchestra<http://cyorchestra.org/> performing the music on the stage of the Evans Amphitheater while the actors stand in front of the orchestra singing the timeless classics.
