There’s trouble in River City when a fast-talking salesman gets his heart stolen by the town librarian. The Music Man 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 – this despite the fact 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 the librarian, who transforms him into a respectable citizen by curtain’s fall. By turns wicked, funny, warm, romantic and touching, The Music Man is family entertainment at its best. Meredith Wilson’s six-time, TONY Award winning musical comedy has been entertaining audiences since 1957 and is a family-friendly story to be shared with every generation. Build your own family traditions at the Kitsap Forest Theater while we transport you to another time and place with show stopping dancing and upbeat songs.

Summer 2016

In a magical kingdom beneath the sea, the beautiful young mermaid Ariel longs to leave her ocean home to live in the world above. Based on one of Hans Christian Andersen’s most beloved stories and the classic animated film, Disney’s The Little Mermaid is a hauntingly beautiful love story for the ages. With music by eight-time Academy Award winner Alan Menken, this fishy fable will capture your heart with its irresistible songs including “Under the Sea,” “Kiss the Girl,” and “Part of Your World.”

Ariel, King Triton’s youngest daughter, wishes to pursue the human Prince Eric in the world above and bargains with the evil sea witch, Ursula, to trade her tail for legs. But the bargain is not what it seems and Ariel needs the help of her colorful friends Flounder the fish, Scuttle the seagull, and Sebastian the crab to restore order under the sea.

This timeless tale is sure to capture the hearts of adults and children alike. Join us on this journey under the sea to a fantastical world of magic, music, and adventure!

The trail to the theater opens at 1:00 pm – shows start at 2:00 pm. Wear comfortable non-slip shoes for the 10 minute walk down the

winding forest trail, and don’t forget your camera. Come early and enjoy the picnic areas and refreshments available at

the top of the trail and in the theater during intermission. Come early or stay after the show to hike to “Big Tree” – one of the

oldest trees on the Kitsap Peninsula – and/or let your kids explore the Treehouse (an awesome play structure near Kitsap Cabin).

relaxing day in the forest. Directions also available at www.ForestTheater.com. Group rates (10 or more) are available by calling 206-521-6001. Assistance for elderly or handicapped individuals is available by
