Paint Your Wagon

Licensed Version
Fortunes rise and fall during the California Gold Rush in Lerner and Loewe’s classic musical about love and ambition.

One of the team’s early Broadway collaborations, Lerner and Loewe’s Paint Your Wagon is an homage to the Old West, featuring gorgeous standards such as “They Call the Wind Maria,” “I Talk to the Trees,” and “Wand’rin’ Star.” 

A hardened old California gold prospector, Ben Rumson, strikes it rich when his daughter, Jennifer finds gold and the love of a local miner, Julio. The town grows more populous and prosperous as news of the strike spreads, but Jennifer heads east to attend school. When she returns, Jennifer finds the town abandoned as its citizens head off to another gold strike, leaving Jennifer to reunite with her father and create a new life with Julio.
