Go See 'The Music Man' at Lakeside High This Week

I've got a number of emails from regarding this week's production of The Music Man. Sounds like a good project to check out. The school's PTSA sent this out this morning – some info about the play:

The Lakeside High School Fine Arts Department presents Meredith Willson's The Music Man as its debut performance in the new Fine Arts Auditorium!!

The Music Man tells the story of traveling salesman, Harold Hill, and his visit to a small Iowa town in 1912 where he meets and falls in love with the librarian, Marian Paroo.  With his fast-talking style, "Professor" Harold Hill convinces the town that unless they adopt his revolutionary music program, the youngsters of River City will be forever doomed.  He gets the parents to buy instruments and expensive uniforms in order to form the River City Boys Band.  Chaos ensues as Hill's credentials are questioned and he is called upon to prove himself to the citizens of River City.

Under the direction of Nicole Nappo with musical direction by Charles Snell, the show features a cast of 65 actors, with Will Berg playing the role of Professor Harold Hill, Kieran Mayer as town librarian Marian Paroo; Sam Armour as Harold's old friend, Marcellus Washburn; Clayton Chambers as Mayor Shinn - the pompous local politician who is suspicious of Hill; Elisa Hoover as the mayor's wife, Eulalie; and Phoebe Warren as Marian's Irish mother, Mrs. Paroo.

Don't miss this wonderful musical production, certain to be another LHS show-stopper!  All seats are General Admission and tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students.
