What Is The Story Of The Music Man?
A family affair with multiple razzle-dazzle song and dance numbers at its core, The Music Man follows fast-talking 'professor' Harold Hill. Having made a living pitching marching bands (then disappearing when he gets the loot) to small towns across the Midwest, Hill pitches up to River City with his usual scheme.
Throwing himself into the act, he gets the whole town interested in his new project. But when the man who can't tell a trombone from a treble clef accidentally launches a new musical trend, he discovers leaving might not be so easy after all. Not only that, but skeptical librarian Marian has stamped his heart, marking his time to fall in love as overdue. Will he be able to make good on his hustle? Or is it time to stop running and settle down?
