The
Music Man is about a con-man
who ultimately does good by a community. "Professor" Harold
Hill's heart opens up through the course of one of America's most beloved
musicals. In the magical number "'Till There Was You," we all
recognize that the power of love is greater than all else, and change is
always possible. In fact, Harold Hill and the children of River City, Iowa,
remind us that the ordinary can indeed be changed to the extraordinary.
This beloved musical features over 100 talented Berkshire youth, as well as Rylan Morsbach (BTG: Mary Poppins, The Homecoming), who was recently hailed as "terrific" by The New York Times in BTG's Off-Broadway transfer of Fiorello!. With eccentric characters and a warm, optimistic story, this charming musical is filled with memorable tunes such as, "Ya Got Trouble," "Gary, Indiana," and more.UY TICKETS |

Set in New York City,
Act 1, Homelife opens with a look inside the isolated marriage of
wealthy textbook company executive, Peter, played by David Adkins (BTG:
Thoreau or, Return to Walden; Poe), and his articulate, Upper
East Side wife, Ann, played by Tara Franklin (BTG: The
Homecoming, Lion in Winter, Equus). Unable
to communicate their feelings to each other, the foundation of their marriage
is built on unspoken agreements. Somehow, they find comfort in their boring
relationship, yet, they are never truly on the same page. Act 2, The Zoo
Story, follows Peter to Central Park. While sitting on a park bench,
Peter encounters forlorn and forsaken stranger, Jerry, played by Joey
Collins Collins (BTG: The Homecoming, Broadway: The Glass
Menagerie). This stranger, who appears desperate for human contact and
connection, forces Peter to listen to his stories, as he digs deep into
Peter's life, and his own.

Good-hearted drama
critic, Mortimer Brewster appears to lead a normal, happy life. Recently
engaged to be married, Mortimer plans a trip to visit his charming, spinster
aunts, Abby and Martha Brewster. However, shortly after Mortimer's arrival,
he discovers that his innocent aunts have a deadly secret buried in the
basement-about a dozen older gentlemen. To Mortimer's dismay, Abby and Martha
deem their poisonous habits as charitable acts; convinced that they are
putting these men out of their misery. Attempting to protect society without
sending Abby and Martha to prison, hilarity and madness ensues as Mortimer
tries to wrangle in his crazy aunts, along with his brothers-Theodore, who
believes he is Theodore Roosevelt, and maniacal, murderous Jonathan.
