Musicals Tonight presents Paint Your Wagon, at the McGinn/Cazale Theatre from 20 Oct - 1 Nov 2009.

Paint Your Wagon has book and lyrics by Alan J. Lerner and music by Frederick Loewe.

Paint Your Wagon: set in Northern California in 1853 where Ben Rumson and his daughter Jennifer accidentally discover gold. As Rumson Town fills with hard-bitten miners, young Jennifer�s feminine presence creates a discomfort only minimally relieved when a Mormon, Jacob Woodling, and his two wives arrive. Persuaded to �share the wealth� in order to acquire a grub stake, Woodling agrees to auction off the less favored wife. Jennifer is sent �back East� to school and her innocent love affair with the town�s only Mexican, Julio, is unable to flourish. She returns to a ghost town, a father abandoned by his purchased wife and the patient Julio. A simpler existence is in the offering until Ben is struck with gold fever one last time.

Songs include: I Talk to the Trees; They Call the Wind Maria; I Still See Elisa; I See a Coach Comin� In.
