About Farmington Hills Youth Theatre: Music Man Kids
Based on Meredith Willson's six-time-Tony-Award-winning musical comedy, The Music Man KIDS features some of musical theatre’s most iconic songs and a story filled with wit, warmth and good old-fashioned romance. The Music Man KIDS 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 Hawk Theatre
For 25 vibrant years, the Cultural Arts Division has been the beating heart of Farmington Hills and Farmington’s cultural scene—where creativity and community unite. As the largest dedicated municipal arts division in Michigan, we spark inspiration through classes, events, exhibits, performances, and hands-on experiences at The Hawk Community Center.
The Hawk Mainstage is a beautiful, state-of-the-art performing arts venue with 767-seats and a completely upgraded light and sound system. The theatre offers opportunities for all ages to experience arts and culture in many forms, including theatrical productions, concerts, comedy, dance performances and festivals, classes, camps, speaker series, and literary events - and so much more!
The Hawk Theatre isn’t just a mainstage venue; we also have a Black Box that can be configured in any way. Having this versatile space allows us to bring more intimate shows to the community. We host comedy, jazz concerts, cabarets, drag shows, and more!
Not only do we have productions and concerts for adults, but we also cater to the youth as well. With our Youth Theatre Program, we bring full scale productions to our stage. Here at The Hawk, we strive to bring performances for all ages! We have performances and classes as young as 3 years old all the way to 18 years of age
