The Music Man Comes to Lisbon

Stage Left’s production of The Music Man opened last Friday, February 7th at 7 p.m. and was directed by Nathan Kuhns. I made it to the Saturday showing, on February 8th.
The Music Man is a musical that centers around Harold Hill, portrayed by Spencer Crosser. He is a con man who moves into a small town, posing as a band director who has no experience with leading a band. He convinces nearly the entire town to invest in instruments needed for such a band, with the pretense that it is morally stronger than the pool table recently added to the town. Along the way, he falls in love with Marian Paroo, portrayed by Elise Szabo, the strong-willed and intelligent librarian.
I found the overall production quite outstanding. The cast performed their lines and their songs excellently and professionally (with no more than four very minor line flubs), and the orchestration was very enjoyable.
The Music Man will be showing again on Friday, February 14th at 7:00 PM, and Saturday, February 15th at 7 P.M. at the Trinity Playhouse.
