Lycoming College Summer Stock marches into town with The Music Man July 26-28! Lycoming College, in collaboration with the Community Arts Center, will bring this golden age musical to life! The Lycoming College Summer Stocks mission is to offer an opportunity for middle and high school age students to work and perform under guidance from professional theater-makers so that they can bring new passion and skills back to their community and educational programs. Each year, the summer stock program presents a student-centric show with professional production values to a large and enthusiastic audience in the beautiful Community Arts Center.
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 that he vows to organize – this, 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, the librarian, who transforms him into a respectable citizen by the curtain's fall.
Tickets for The Music Man will go on sale Monday, March 4, at 10 a.m. and can be purchased at CACLive.com/TheMusicMan or through the Box Office at 570.326.2424.
