PROGRAM NOTES By Anika Chapin, Goodspeed Musicals Artistic Associate

So what it is about the show that makes it so popular?

Set in 1912, it tells the story of a criminal (albeit a very charismatic one), who sets out to con a town of well-meaning (albeit stuck-up) townspeople. His love interest is a librarian, shunned by much of the town, whose cynicism is bordering on bitterness. Their love story begins as a practical means to an end on his part—if he can keep her distracted with romance, she might not see through his scheme to bamboozle the town. Except that she is completely uninterested in his courtship. How is it possible that these two fall in love? Well, partly it is because Marian sees Hill even more clearly than he can imagine. Although she doesn’t believe his lies for an instant, what she sees is a man who comes to town and immediately Robert Preston and Barbara Cook in the original 1957 spots those members of the society that have been Broadway production of The Music Man declared outsiders—Tommy Djilas, the kid from the wrong side of the tracks; Winthrop, the boy whose The story of a stranger coming to town is one of the speech impediment keeps him silent; and even Marian oldest kinds of stories there is.

It’s a beautiful message, and one that seems especially timely today.

GOODSPEED MUSICALS | 2019 SEASON 25 ABOUT GOODSPEED MUSICALS

Where We’ve Been Goodspeed’s beginnings date back to 1963 when we opened our doors as a professional musical theatre in an historic building on the banks of the Connecticut River in East Haddam. Under the direction of Michael Price from 1968 to 2014, Goodspeed transformed from a struggling entity into a non-profit arts organization with a mission. At first, Goodspeed’s commitment was to discover rarely produced musicals from the repertoire, reworking them and bringing them to life. We were also intent on adding to the repertoire by discovering and nurturing promising new musicals presented at both The Goodspeed and The Terris Theatre in neighboring Chester.

In our history, we have produced over 250 musicals, including over 70 world premieres, and exported 21 productions to Broadway. Goodspeed stands as the first regional theatre in America to earn two special Tony Awards, one in 1980 for outstanding contributions to the American musical and a second in 1995 for distinguished achievement for a regional theatre.

Who We Are Today Goodspeed Musicals mounts both new and newly revived musicals each year on our main stage at The Goodspeed in East Haddam and on our second stage, The Terris Theatre, in Chester–a total of more than 400 performances during the April to December season, attracting 130,000 patrons to the Connecticut River Valley. We stand at the forefront of producing and preserving the American musical, simultaneously reinventing the classics and inventing new ones. We attract well-known icons of the theatre world and foster emerging talent among composers, lyricists, and librettists. Each year, thousands of actors, directors, choreographers, and technicians aspire to come to Goodspeed to practice their craft. Among millions who know and love this art form–and those who appreciate its history and enduring appeal–Goodspeed is widely recognized as “The Home of the American Musical.”

Throughout the year, and intensively during the winter months, Goodspeed addresses issues unique to the field by offering innovative and highly-sought after programs through our Max Showalter Center for Education in Musical Theatre, including the celebrated Musical Theatre Institute providing programs for aspiring musical theatre professionals. The Arts Education Collaboration provides art-education programs for underserved Connecticut youth. The Festival of New Musicals features students from The Hartt School and the Boston Conservatory performing staged readings of three brand-new musicals, industry-related seminars, a symposium, and cabaret performances. Each winter, Goodspeed also hosts the Johnny Mercer Foundation Writers Colony that invites musical theatre writing teams to retreat from daily life for a four-week residency and concentrate solely on writing new musicals. In addition, Goodspeed serves as a resource for the preservation of the art form through our Scherer Library of Musical Theatre, the second most extensive musical theatre research library in the United States.

The Future We Envision The Goodspeed campus will continue to serve as a thriving artist colony where the creative process informs the work on our stages and expanding educational programs. We aspire to serve as a safe haven where a singular commitment to discovery and innovation will enrich the field with the next generation of musical theatre artists.

26 GOODSPEED MUSICALS | 2019 SEASON HISTORY OF THE GOODSPEED

The Goodspeed has endured as a majestic presence on the Connecticut River since it was built in 1876 by William H. Goodspeed, a shipping and banking magnate and avid theatre lover. Since that time, The Goodspeed has lived two lives: the first as a bustling center of commerce, housing a theatre, professional offices, steamboat passenger terminal, and a general store; and the second, after a period of neglect and deterioration, as a magnificent professional musical theatre fully restored in 1963 to its original splendor.

Goodspeed’s history goes back to its opening night on October 24, 1877, when a repertory group presented the comedy Charles II and the farces Box and Cox and Turn Him Out. Featured performers of the day were brought to East Haddam by steamboat, many directly from theatres in New York.

After William Goodspeed’s death, the theatre was eventually sold and used as a storage depot for the State Highway Department. The building was marked The Goodspeed Opera House circa 1880 for demolition in 1958, but local preservationists became interested, and in 1959 The Goodspeed Opera House Foundation was organized to restore and reactivate the theatre. With the cooperation of the State of Connecticut and the support of donor- members, The Goodspeed was restored and rededicated on June 18, 1963 with the opening of the musical Oh Lady! Lady!!

OUR MISSION

The mission of Goodspeed Musicals is to be the leader in preserving and producing musical theatre of the highest quality by:

• Rethinking, restoring, and producing works that are valued and significant in the history of musical theatre; • Developing new musical theatre works; • Nurturing the talents of new composers, lyricists, and librettists; • Encouraging and developing the talents of artists, technicians, and administrators; • Inspiring future audiences through education programs and outreach efforts; • Preserving and expanding the archival collections of its Scherer Library of Musical Theatre and making them available for professional use; • Maintaining the Goodspeed Opera House, a national historic landmark.
