The Music Man (Touring)

Professor Harold Hill, a con man posing as a music instructor, arrives in River City, Iowa promising to organize a boys' marching band.

The Music Man is considered one of the greatest American musicals, praised for its authentic Americana themes, memorable score, and skillful blend of comedy and heart. The original production ran for 1,375 performances and has been revived multiple times on Broadway, most recently in 2022 starring Hugh Jackman and Sutton Foster.

Acerca de este evento

This classic American musical returns to Colorado Springs in its Broadway-caliber touring production. The Music Man follows the story of Harold Hill, a charismatic traveling salesman who transforms the fictional River City, Iowa through the power of music and community. The production features Meredith Willson's beloved score including "76 Trombones," "Till There Was You," and "Gary, Indiana."

The Pikes Peak Center provides an intimate 2,000-seat setting for this Tony Award-winning musical — significantly smaller than Denver's major venues like the Buell Theatre at DCPA. The venue's proximity to downtown Colorado Springs makes it easily accessible, with the show running at 7:30 PM on February 26th.

This touring production maintains the high production values of recent Broadway revivals while bringing live theater to Colorado's second-largest metropolitan area. The musical's themes of community building and the transformative power of music resonate particularly well in smaller market productions.
