Win 4 Tickets to THE KING AND I at The Fox

Performances are Sept. 5-11th. Win Tix to Thurs. Sept 6th Show!

August 23, 2012
The classic production, THE KING AND I, returns to Atlanta September 5-11 at the Fox Theatre as part of Theater of the Stars' 60th Season. Set in the 1860’s in the exotic capital city of Bangkok, THE KING AND I is the timeless love story between a powerful and stubborn king and a determined governess named Anna. The show features opulent settings, a beautiful story of honor and forgiveness, and is filled with memorable songs such as “Hello Young Lovers,” “I Whistle A Happy Tune,” “Shall We Dance?” and “Getting To Know You.”  Based on the real life adventures of the English widow Anna Leonowens, and the best-selling 1944 novel, Anna and the King of Siam by Margaret Landon, THE KING AND I is a fascinating tale about a clash of customs and finding love in spite of our differences.  

The team of Richard Rodgers (composer) and Oscar Hammerstein II (librettist/lyricist) was the most consistently fruitful and successful partnership in American musical theatre. In addition to THE KING AND I, their musicals include OKLAHOMA!, CAROUSEL, ALLEGRO, SOUTH PACIFIC, ME AND JULIET, PIPE DREAM, FLOWER DRUM SONG and THE SOUND OF MUSIC. The original 1951 production of THE KING AND I received five Tony Awards including Best Musical and the 1956 movie adaptation won five Academy Awards.
