The King and I Two worlds collide in this glorious Rodgers and Hammerstein gem. Set in 1860s Bangkok, this musical marvel tells the story of the unconventional and tempestuous relationship that develops between
the King of Siam and Anna, a British schoolteacher who travels to Siam to teach his children. Their clash of wills leads to compromise – and eventually love – through iconic moments and memorable songs like “Getting To Know You,” “Whistle a Happy Tune,” and “Shall We Dance.” For info and tickets, visit anchorageconcerts.org.

The Piano Guys With their serendipitous start in a small-town Utah piano shop, four dads set out to make
a positive impact all over the world through music videos. That shared purpose struck a chord, and their stunning, self-made videos parlayed The Piano Guys into more than 1 billion YouTube views, six albums, a PBS special, and a concert empire. After two sold-out shows in Anchorage in 2014, The Piano Guys return to Alaska to bring their original mashups of classical crossovers to Anchorage. For info and tickets, visit anchorageconcerts.org.
