Local theater group will have five performances at The Garver Theater in Camas, with opening night set for Aug. 2
Harold Hill had a plan, a plan to con a bunch of folks in the Midwest.
But will love get in the way of that plan?
By turns wicked, funny, warm, romantic and touching, The Music Man has been entertaining audiences since 1957.
In August, Clark County’s Journey Theater will present its production of Meredith Wilson’s The Music Man, with five performances at The Garver Theater in Camas.
The Music Man is a six-time Tony Award-winning musical comedy. It follows fast-talking traveling salesman Harold Hill as he cons the people of River City, Iowa, into buying instruments and uniforms for a band that he vows to organize. Turns out, Hill does not know a trombone from a treble clef. He really wants to skip town with the cash.
Marian the librarian, though, changes everything.
Can The Music Man transform into a respectable citizen by curtain’s fall?
Opening night is 7 p.m. Friday, Aug. 2 at The Garver Theater, 1500 NE Garfield Street in Camas. Journey will have two performances on Saturday, Aug. 3, with a 2 p.m. matinee followed by a 7 p.m. show.
The production returns to The Garver Theate the next week for a 7 p.m. performance on Friday, Aug. 9, and a 2 p.m. show on Saturday, Aug. 10.
Adult tickets are $26 and youth and senior tickets are $22, if they are purchased in advance. Tickets are $2 more at the door.
Tickets are on sale at https://journeytheater.org/
Tickets can also be purchased over the phone at (360) 750-8550.
Journey Theater is a Jesus-centered, nonprofit theater arts program that exists to grow youth and their families in character and purpose to be difference-makers in their world. Journey has been serving Clark County since 2002.
