The Music Man
January 24 to February 8, 2025 at the Michael J Fox Theatre (Burnaby, BC)
By turns wicked, funny, warm, romantic and touching, The Music Man is family entertainment at its best. Meredith Willson's six-time, Tony Award-winning musical comedy has been entertaining audiences since 1957 and is a family-friendly story to be shared with every generation.
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 curtain's fall.

Relaxed & ASL Interpreted Performance
Date TBD
Relaxed Performances are intended for an audience who may benefit from a more relaxed sensory experience or casual environment when attending the theatre. In short, relaxed performances are for anyone who wants to enjoy live performance but may not feel comfortable in a traditional theatre environment. Some elements of a relaxed performance may include less dramatic lighting, lessened expectations of the audience with regard to verbalization and the opportunity for people to enter/ exit the theatre as they feel is necessary.
Our relaxed Preview Performance will also include an ASL Interpreter.
