There's trouble in River City when a fast-talking salesman gets his heart stolen by the town librarian in this adaptation of the Tony Award-winning Broadway classic.
Based on Meredith Willson's six-time-Tony-Award-winning musical comedy, The Music Man JR. features some of musical theatre’s most iconic songs and a story filled with wit, warmth and good old-fashioned romance. The Music Man JR. is family entertainment at its best — a bold, brassy show that will have the whole town atwitter!
Master showman Harold Hill is in town and he’s got “seventy-six trombones” in tow. Can upright, uptight Marian, the town librarian, resist his powerful allure? The story 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 he vows to organize. The catch? 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, whose belief in Harold’s power just might help him succeed in the end in spite of himself.
The Music Man JR. is the perfect vehicle for your young cast, a toe-tapping crowd-pleaser that features a soaring soprano ingénue part and a leading role for a charismatic actor, as well as plenty of roles for kids of every level.

Has anyone made a Piano Accompaniment for the Ice Cream/Sincerely Barber Shop Quartet song in Music Man Jr ? All of my boys are new singers and would feel more comfortable with a backup as suggested in the Directors Guide. Ultimately the goal is to help them be successful! Our shows are done in nursing home facilities so the Quartet Piece will be very important for that audience. Our show rotation begins March 7th. Thank You

For most of our shows you may create your own logo. The only exceptions at this time are Billy Elliot The Musical, Green Day's American Idiot, and all Broadway JR. titles. In these cases the logo is offered to you free of charge.
Hi There, as per above, we are putting on a production of The Music Man, Jr. I will be making the posters myself - is there an official logo I have to use? and if so, can you please send it to me?
Our students perform Jr. versions of shows at the elementary level. I don't think our middle school is quite prepared for a two hour show, but I would like to add a few more songs for them so they are performing a bit more advanced version than our elementary schools. We were looking at the Music Man and wanted to add Marian the Librarian and Will I Ever Tell You. Is this something I can request to add to the Jr. version through MTI?
Could anyone please tell me where you got the instruments for this show? Did you have the students actually use their own instruments or did you buy plastic ones? I would be grateful for any help!
