The con’s on in Snug Harbor

You can almost hear the 76 trombones now.

Meredith Willson’s beloved musical comes to Staten Island this month, when the Harbor Lights Theater Company stages a production of “The Music Man.”

An affectionate paean to Smalltown, USA, the musical follows fast-talking traveling salesman Harold Hill as he cons the people of River City, Iowa, into buying instruments and uniforms for a boy’s band he vows to organize. By curtain’s fall, he is transformed into a respectable citizen.

You’ll be singing “Ya Got Trouble,” “Shipoopi,” “Gary Indiana,” and “Seventy-six Trombones” all the way home.

“The Music Man” at The Music Hall [1000 Richmond Terrace at Hamilton Avenue in Snug Harbor, (866) 811-1411], July 8-17. Tickets $30, $25 students and seniors. For info, visit www.theharborlightstheatercompany.org.
