Meredith Willson 's timeless, five-time Tony Award winning musical comedy, THE MUSIC MAN follows a notorious, fast-talking traveling salesman as he cons the people of River City, Iowa, into buying instruments and uniforms for a boys' band that he vows to organize – despite the fact that 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 Paroo, the local librarian. A true musical theater gem, the story's relevance transcends generations with unforgettable songs including "Seventy-Six Trombones," "Trouble," 'Till There Was You," "Pickalittle" and "Gary, Indiana".

Meredith Willson 's iconic humor, wordplay, and optimism will glimmer through designs from an acclaimed creative team, with scenery design by Ann Beyersdorfer , costumes direct from the recent Broadway revival by TONY Award winner Santo Loquasto , lighting design by TONY Award winner Ken Billington , video design by Lisa Renkel , wig design by Roxanne De Luna , and sound design by TONY Award nominee, Walter Trarbach . This new flagship tour is cast by Casting by ARC and executive produced by Big League Productions, Inc. led by Daniel Sher .

In 1957, THE MUSIC MAN, a work of true originality, took Broadway by storm, winning five TONY Awards, including the Best New Musical. While it is undoubtably a heartfelt love letter to Midwest America and small towns everywhere, its enduring message continues to move audiences across generations and demographics even today. Big League Productions, Inc. is thrilled to bring the joy of Meredith Willson ’s ingenuity to theaters across the country.
