About
Seventy-six trombones led the way in 2013 as Gowanda brought the sights and sounds of River City, Iowa, to the stage for our production of The Music Man Jr. This classic Americana story followed the fast-talking Professor Harold Hill as he transformed a town through the power of music. Our cast took on the challenge of mastering rapid-fire dialogue and iconic barbershop harmonies, delivering a performance filled with charm and vocal precision.
The success of the show was a result of intense Collaboration, particularly in the elaborate ensemble numbers and the period-authentic costumes and set design. The student tech crew worked tirelessly to manage the quick transitions between the town square and the Madison Public Library, ensuring the story’s heart and humor reached every seat in the auditorium. It was a nostalgic and energetic production that highlighted the talent and Panther Pride of our students. 💙
